Slowly moved to anyone in my family she didn't feel was quote unquote a good influence or helped me the right way or helped her help me the right way or whatever reason.

My sister would come over, and she'd be like, what can I do to help? And then she'd do something for me, and Ellen would kind of snap at her and be like, you're not doing it right. Just leave. People wanted help, but no one wanted to get verbally abused. If it wasn't her way, then get the fuck out.

I want so bad to just be like, guys, stop, stop. I can't say anything. I can't move. Can't even cry. I just am there. And at this point, that was the point where I was like, just put me in a nursing home. This is too much for everyone. Let me, let me die.

My dad, he was getting berated by her a lot, getting calls while he was at work, do this, pick up this. And by the way, go to the pharmacy and pick up my meds. She was the boss. I think my dad was probably like, fuck this, you know?

I just remember her footsteps, boom, boom, boom, boom, storming around the house, making calls on speakerphone to my dad. It going to voicemail, leaving messages like, where the fuck are you? You're 45 minutes late. So enraged. And then I hear the door open. And I hear footsteps coming. And I hear my wife screaming at him. Screaming. And I hear my dad going, why are you so mad?

Just, I'm here, sorry, I'm here. And then I hear, are you drunk? You smell like alcohol. And then I hear, you're strangling me, you're strangling me. And then I hear a bottle pop, not like a glass bottle breaking, like A two-liter Coke bottle being boffed off someone's head. And then I hear a human being tumbling down the stairs, crashing into the door. And I hear my dad's mumbles. Ugh, ugh.

I want to say I heard, like, what or why did you do this to me? And then I heard the door open and someone crawling out the door and the door pull shut. And then I hear more storming around the house. Bathroom door slamming and my wife calling 911 and saying my father-in-law just tried to kill me, tried to strangle me. And that's all I know.

I did not see my father ever again or hear anything about him again or anyone in my family ever again.
