Was spending some time at Mom's house today despite the fact that I knew Dad was drinking... wasn't such a great idea. We had the ambulance and the cops at the house bc he claimed he was trying to "drink himself to death." Go figure. I found out later that the same thing happened last night but I didn't know about it. Apparently Laura was trying to talk to him yesterday and she's the one who called them. She was trying to Baker Act him but there was no proof of what he said. So he didn't go. He went with them tonight though. He needed it. Drinking 80 proof Vodka straight for a few weeks with screw anyone up. He still had a bit of sanity left though. He'd cry anytime he saw Stryker bc he knew he couldn't hold him and he wanted to so bad. You could see it in his eyes. Uncle Michael was at the house when I got here today. He just lost his daughter recently. It was good for him to have stopped by and talk with Dad. He needed that. After he left Wayne, the guy across the street, came over to talk with Dad. I think it was a combination of all the people trying to talk sense into Dad that made him agree to leave with the cops and everyone else involved. Wayne was the one there when he left.
Stryker stayed with Robert and Adair tonight. His first night away from home. The break came just in time considering all that was going on. Shane almost couldn't leave him. I knew I couldn't have done it... that's why Shane did it :P
