Its everyones worst nightmare to

Get that call. The one that is at 5:24AM, marked as URGENT on your phone.. from one of your parents cell phones.

I got that call. I woke up to my alarm at 5:55AM so i could go to a spinning aerobics class. I woke up excited, pumped to do this. Looked on my phone and just got a bad feeling. I called my moms cell phone back and it was my uncle scott who picked up. Which must be the SCARIEST thing. 

"Hey..
(looong pause) 
um, your dad.. had a stroke. 
deeeep breath..
they said its not looking good, were waiting to see what is gonna happen.
Mom cant talk right now."

Ive been in a pretty big fight with him for a couple months now. I just moved out about a month ago. Life will change traumatically if he passes away right now. Im too far away for comfort.

Things havnt been good at home at all. I dont know if my mom can handle this. 
I dont know if I can handle this. 

He who strikes the first blow admits he's lost the argument. Chinese Proverb

who knows, maybe this could result in a big change for his life and be a lesson. 
..we can only hope.
