Can you all please pray for my mom and dad's relationship and my mom's health?
My dad is an alcoholic and it's driving my mom to death (literally). She tries to deal with him and just "let it go" but it's taking a toll on her. My dad doesn't do what he's supposed to with his money and barely pays the rent and bills so my mom has to take her $450 disability check to cover for his slack. He has been an alcoholic for as long as I can think back and will not get help. He says, "I'm not drunk, I've just had a sip of wine". We aren't stupid. Also, one of our cars broke down and they dont have any money to get another one so my mom is stuck at home all day long while my dad is at work. She can't even make her doctors appointments or go to the store without waiting on someone to drive her around. She gets so lonely sitting up in the house all day. He never takes her anywhere. Also, my dad gets drunk within minutes of coming home from work and verbally abuses my mom. It makes me want to cry. He calls her a hoe and says that she's the worst thing on the face of the earth which is not true and the reason why he drinks is because he married her. My mom only gets $450 a month from social security/disability and by the time she helps my dad with his bills, groceries, prescriptions, and buy a little here or there for my sisters unborn baby, she doesn't have any money for herself...she wants to leave so bad but she has no where to go. I am away at college and I hate being away because I am not at home to be the "peacemaker" or the "middle man", but a lot of times I feel that now is my time to be in school and "live life". I feel so helpless a lot of times. I cannot help my dad. He needs to recognize how he is treating my mom and that he has a problem and get his ish together. I feel like I can help my mom in some way though. When I went home I offered to take my mom out to get her out of the house, but she didn't want to go. She said she feels ugly and doesn't have any money so the only thing I can do is constantly pray. My mom is constantly loosing weight and I pray she doesn't have cancer or just waste away. I love both of my parents with all my heart and they are the only family that I have. I would appreciate it if you all kept them in your prayers.
