    Got a crazy distressed call from my Mom about an hour ago. Her husband is supposed to be in the hospital resting... something is very wrong with him that he needs to be on a ton of pain meds and monitored (he can barely move without crying out in pain... horrid shoulder / back / arm injury).

    He called my Mom probably just over an hour ago saying some woman is "trying to kill him"... he has ripped all the wires / tubes from his body, left the hospital and is wandering in the middle of fucking nowhere, Alaska at the moment.

    My Mom's heart has her bed ridden... she has zero energy to deal with this and has been calling her children in a panic.

    I just got off the phone with police up there... they're out looking for the guy... all I can do is sit on my ass as I'm 6,000 miles east... FUUCK

    • Not your Dad, presumably?
      Does he suffer from dementia?
      A horrid situation, I'm sorry for you and your Mom.

    • Fuck man!!! I wish everything goes well, that they find him soon and safe!oey_oey
    • damn!YakuZoku
    • That's rough. Dementia, I'm guessing. Two of my grandfathers did the same thing, and I get feeling of the mileage and helplessness. Stay strong bro.garbage
    • Woaaa! Sorry for your mom (and you too...) hope they find him, but, I think it's time to "check" this man. My father's dad used to make these types of...OBBTKN
    • "getaways". An extra job for your mom, keeping an eye on whether he escapes or not... Hugs, man!OBBTKN
    • It can also be a bad reaction to pain medication, hallucination combined with waking up somewhere you don't know.Nutter
    • He's back in the hospital. Took a few hours but friends found him. Nutter may be right—the guy's not know for dementia and has been on a morphine drip 3 days :/PonyBoy
    • I'm glad he's been found. Fucking terrifying. Nothing about this is easy. Hopefully, your mom isn't in a panic, at the minimum. :(kaiyohtee
    • Alaska?!?!?pango
    • Yep :)PonyBoy
    • My dad got super paranoid from pain killers while in ICU after a heart bypass. It’s common enough I believe but very scary.mort_
    • We found this out from some of his friends who he had called from his hospital bed to explain how ISIS had infiltrated the hospital :-/mort_
    • Damn Pony that’s crazy.
      Hope it all turns out for the best.
      Keep us posted
