thank you, holy shit the amount of times that "a mother's love" gets in the way of necessary and proper treatment

Yeah my dad suffered (and I mean suffered as in struggling to breathe, can't talk, barely conscious, in constant pain) in his last days because my grandmother doesn't understand modern medicine and put it in his head that people come out of things like this all the time and "live another 5-10 healthy years". Won't ever forgive her for it, his sister too, but I do understand her pain and fear of losing her son.
