    1) the truck was destroyed
    2) PTSD. His father also committed suicide by blowing his brains out and Bobby was the one who found him.
    3) Now when a rock flies up in our wheel well, he relives it and starts crying again. He had no more room for tragedy in his life. He can't help it, but the last time he was behind the wheel, someone died.

    They are not being cooperative. They knew he got robbed and didn't bother to help him with food or anything. We had to send him door dash to feed him til I could get there. His ID was stolen so I couldnt even wire him money. It was just awful. We are thinking they must not have been up to date on insurance or something. We dont know.

    Everybody reacts to tragedy differently. Dont be such a hard ###. No disrespect, but until you walk a day in another mans shoes, dont judge.

    He is not ready. It's been a hard road. Like I said, I have been hired by the state of Oregon but the job starts in August. I am a retired ICU nurse and have to provide a lot of background checks, etc. After I start,, I have to submit my hours worked and they pay once a month at the end of the month. We are just trying to hang on til then.
     
    Bud A. and LoSt_AgAiN Thank this.
