The Michael Swayne Story V: King of his Castle

While I was playing Skyrim this morning, Dad came running through the house to kitchen. He yelled out as he passed, "D's passed out!" Dad grabs the sugar and tells me to grab a soda. We run outside, and my brother is sitting in the driveway, with the kid I tutor and his grandfather. Dad spoon fed him the sugar, and I opened the soda. After a few minutes, my brother was able to get up and sit on the porch. And he was fine ever since.

Why was my brother passed out, and why was that the second time that morning? Dad took the staples out my brother's head. Yeah, instead of going to the doctor's office where he could be monitored and have the staples taken out by the person who put them in. Dad takes a pair of dirty pliers that were in his toolbox and pulled them out for him.

Now, I understand that it's something simple. I could have done it. But I wouldn't have done it out in the garage, where it felt like more than 100 degrees in there. Anyway, Dad did try and make up for it. But he should have done a better job of preparation before doing it. And all just to save money.

Anyway, my brother has been fine since then. He did feel light headed a couple times throughout the day, but it was never too bad. My guess is that when Dad tried pulling them out, his shaky hands wiggled the staples causing a shock feeling. But I could be wrong. I just know that the same thing happened with Mom when Dad pulled the staples out for her when she got hurt.

Moving on...

I continued the main story of Skyrim. I am about to go after Alduin into Sovngarde. Anymore, I fast travel everywhere because I want to just finish the story. I have accepted more side quests, but I only worked on the main quest today.

And other than a few rounds of multiplayer matches in Osu!, I mainly just made sure my brother was okay.

Well, tomorrow is a new day, so I will stop here. I hope to see you around the forums, and until then...

Later!

Michael
