I sent my dad THE email Friday morning and I have heard nothing back. He will eventually have to say something to me as I live in one of his rental houses. I am going crazy though. I can't imagine he hasn't opened his email.
I am also in a ->-bleeped-<- ton of pain. I have a herniated disc in my neck. I did something that irritated it last week. I had to come in to work today (groundskeeper) because I do t have any more leave left. I bought a neck brace, but it only helps a little. It F---ing bites to not be able to hold up your own head!
End rant.
He probably needs some time. It isn´t "light news".
I don´t know how your dad usually deals with challenging topics and with you, but it´s possible he´s just taking some time to process it. I´d say give him space. Try not to think that it´s personal.
That herniated disc sounds tough. How long does it take to heal?
Maybe an ice/hot pack helps?
Pao,
Here's a big (and careful) hug. The stress of a non-answer while in serious neck pain cannot be easy - I wish things were better for you right now. Hoping your father replies soon, fingers crossed he will be positive or at least accepts you for who you are. Maybe it's a good sign he didn't immediately go negative and is taking time to think things over.
