We're All Insane · I Accidentally Paralyzed My Dad · 19 Jan 2026 podcast

Just like, can we all just be adults and just be in the same place, you know?

So, um,

February of 2018, my best friend in Chicago, my mom's best friend's daughter, she texts me and she said, my dad's gone.

He, from what we know, he had gotten, they think he was drinking.

He slipped on ice, hit the back of his head, maybe on his truck, on the ground.

I'm not sure.

He had been struggling with a head injury.

since that December.

So February 2018, his wife had went in, my mom's best friend, went in to wake him up for a doctor's appointment and found that he had had a seizure in his sleep.

She tried to give him CPR, but he was gone.

And this was Rich?

This was Rich, my dad's best friend, yeah.

So it just was like...

You know, this was like a second dad to me, somebody that like has watched me grow up.

And, you know, my best friend who felt like a sister, we never went a day without talking to each other, has just lost her dad.

And here I'm in this position where I'm like petrified I'm going to lose my dad.

And I'm like, how's my dad going to recover from this as well?

So I remember calling my mom and telling her and then calling my dad and telling him.

And they told us when, you know, they were going to have arrangements.

We were already like my mother in law drove from Maryland to Ohio to keep my kids.
