I Hate My Mother - Finally, The Answer

Finally, The Answer The next year is one that I wish was one time I didn’t remember... but I do. Things were falling apart at every turn. When this ordeal was over, the only person who stayed with me was the one person who should have left me first - my wife. I vaguely remember some things I did to... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - The Last Psychiatrist

The Last Psychiatrist When I got home from that appointment late in the afternoon, my wife told me “A new doctor called. Call him back tomorrow.” I knew that was going to happen, but I didn’t think it would be that fast. From the last time I had spoken with the state doctor, it was clear they wanted...

I Hate My Mother - Days of Agony

Days of Agony Because I cover so much of this next section in my Audible book, “My Long Road Home,” I’m going to condense the next three years for this story to fit in this chapter. I will have to add one more to explain what happened next and how I finally found my answer. There were a lot of... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - Faint Of Heart

Faint Of Heart Over the next week, all I could think about was my failure to protect myself. All I had to do was fall down, but I never moved. Why? My mind replayed the video of Ralph using me as a punching bag twenty times a day, and I couldn’t come up with a single reason I stood there. My wife... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - Aftermath - Part B

The next time I woke up, I heard my wife calling my name. It took a few moments to open my eyes and realize she was talking to a doctor standing next to me. He was explaining my injuries to her. The phrase that caught my attention was when he told her, “We don’t think at this point we will need to... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - Aftermath

Aftermath When everything was back under control, the doctor who had set the entire incident off finally found the courage to crawl out from under the desk. He was still shaking from the adrenaline rush of the attack when someone asked him to check me out. The spinal fluid was still actively... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - The Smack - Part Four

As I returned to the unit, I found Ralph pacing and agitated as he waited for the doctor to arrive. I tried to calm him, but he wasn’t interested in listening to anyone. I don’t know how it works today, but prison rules required that at least one officer of the same skin color be with the inmate... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - The Smack - Part Three

All the way to work that morning, something in my head was telling me to turn around and go home. I almost pulled over to use a payphone (this was before cell phones), but I changed my mind as I got close to the gas station. It was a mistake. When I walked into the unit, I knew something was wrong.... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - The Smack - Part Two

Late in the spring, a new patient was admitted to the ward named Ralph. He was a relatively young man at nineteen from one of the larger cities in Michigan, and until this incarceration, he had never been in trouble. After he had cleared the mandatory ten-day isolation period, the unit supervisor... Sign in to see full entry.

I Hate My Mother - The Smack - Part One

The Smack This next incident was something I briefly mentioned in the first or second episode. In between my move from working as a medic to working as a nurse, I worked in the psych ward of a major prison. I had a degree in psychology, specializing in “Abnormal Psych,” and when my dad told me the... Sign in to see full entry.
