Now Playing: DH’s phone in the background
Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo boy. DH’s brother is back on a downswing. He needs a fun nickname like everyone else in here… brother-in-law doesn’t cover it. Let’s just call him Chaos. So Chaos is apparently homeless again. See, the thing about him is, he’s definitely got some form of mental illness. We’re thinking probably bipolar, but refuses any kind of treatment. He has like four good months then three bad months… anyway, he was living with his “girlfriend’s” parent’s house. Apparently they got kicked out? He spent the entire phone call with my FiL bitching about how they need a place to stay and how FiL needs to change his entire life again just for him.
A couple of notes:
- Chaos doesn’t know that my FiL has cancer.
- Chaos and his girlfriend (hereby known as Booklady) used to live with FiL, and they were HORRIBLE tenants.
- FiL lives in tiny mobile home with two “bedrooms,” where only one room can fit an actual bed. Chaos and Booklady used to live in the tiny bedroom. FiL now uses it as a room where he can tinker with things (which is his favorite hobby) without having to go out into the cold shed. He can’t go in the shed in the winter because of a side effect of the chemotherapy. The cold makes his skin and throat tingle uncontrollably, like pins and needles in a foot that fell asleep.
- Chaos is an alcoholic and uses women and basically any person that falls for his bullshit.
- Chaos and Booklady had loud sex all the time without trying to hide it.
- FiL doesn’t need any goddamned stress right now.
- Again, most importantly, CHAOS DOES NOT KNOW THAT FiL HAS CANCER.
As of right now, we don’t know if the girlfriend is still with him or not. They were apparently planning marriage at some point, despite Chaos telling FiL that Booklady would give him blowjobs or some shit. We are lacking any meaningful information, other than Chaos is being an asshole again… Which he always is.
DH is 7 different kinds of angry and I don’t blame him. I hate when Chaos rears his ugly head.

I had a bad day at work today, but honestly with this shit with my brother-in-law… I can’t even remember most of it. My neck and shoulder are hurting me today but… man I just can’t stop thinking about this drama bullshit.
Chaos reminds me of my father. So schmoozy, so charming… and secretly has rotten insides. Dark, foul, insides.
FiL had another CAT scan a few days ago and they haven’t said anything. We were hoping that he would be able to only have the chemo pills and not need the IV chemo anymore… but we don’t know. The issue is that his case is terminal so all of this chemo is a life-extension measure… but the IV chemo makes him miserable. He’s sick for weeks, can’t eat, can’t do anything he enjoys… What kind of life is that?

I don’t know how I planned to write this before Chaos called but I am worn out and worried now. Fuck.
3 things I’m grateful for today:
- my new laptop that DH and FiL made for me
- the stickers I put on it
- tissues with lotion in them
