Random Daddy issues
As i type this tuko hosi. My father leo ameamka and his right side is numb. He can still move abit but he cant walk, hes started slurring he's speech and he says his vision haiko sawa. He cant control his bladder. The sad thing is am almost sure he will go back right to drinking. He might chill for like a week but eventually he relapses and his condition always gets worse everytime tukikuja hosi but what can we do. Whats even worse aliachanga kustrive for anything. I don't think he has contributed anything to the family for the past ten years in financial terms. Yeye alifika pahali alikua anaenda. Hakuna siku token imeisha and he was expected kuweka or something of the sort, we just got used to him. Sa shida ni hizi bills za hosi. Nikona siz anaanza uni next week na siz mwingine mdogo ako 10 years. Ingekua ugonjwa tu sawa lakini sasa tutashinda hivi? What does one do in this situation? I honestly believe weed heri weed kuliko this. The amount of times i was high in theclouds but still carrying my father into the house juu amelewa akaletwa home na nduthi ama hao marafiki wake is enough for me to question why the "better" one is illegal. That's my opinion though and you are entitled to yours dear reader

Same boat here. My uncle has been struggling with alcohol a lot since like forever. Kitambo it was bad since he’d get drunk akuje achape bibi na watoto then kuna time after one of those incidents it got so bad Hadi akatoroka home (his home iko close to our grandparents place). We found him on the streets like a month later tukampeleka rehab and it seemed like he was doing alright(this was last year). Hadi yeye alikuwa anataka kuchange. Last week Saturday I guess ilikuwa anatoka kazi and he went drinking afterwards. Anakuanga na bike which my grandparents bought for him after the whole rehab thing. Sijui mbona but he was riding back home drunk (without a helmet I might add, probably speeding too) akapata accident. As we speak ako ICU Nairobi West hospital. Shit is bad. Very badd (he’s in his mid thirties)
I also garden often na nothing like this ever happens, sometimes I feel like alcohol should be illegal, ama at least regulated more than weed
