Anyways, yesterday(thanksgiving) at around 11am or so, something happened and my dad came in my bros room and said I'm taking mom to the hospital, he wasn't paying much attention and fell asleep. I woke up an hour later, and walked into the living room. My brother told me we aren't gonna do anything cause mom is at the hospital. So I asked questions and etc. Mind you, he is only 10.

So right now, my mom is at the hospital for overnight stay.. No doctor there due to holiday.. so she has to stay there. I'm going to go there today to see if she needs surgery or not.  

So my dad comes hope.. he cooks up a thanksgiving dinner.. So its just me,him and my 10yr bro. It was pretty crappy. But I don't blame anyone..

just some 5 mins ago, at 5:30am as of today.. like 10 mins ago.. I heard a like.. moan kinda cry. And next to my room is my parents bedroom. I realized what that noise was.. and it was my dad crying. I've never heard him like that before.. and it just breaks my heart completely and I just don't know what to do..  

I hear him go to his bathroom and clean up though.. It was breaks my heart completely..  
 EDIT: I really think he had a nightmare.. a really bad one..

Please excuse typos..

Be strong, I had that last year with my family, pm me if you want to talk more

Its so hard to be strong about it. I've been depressed way before these things happens.. its just to hard to even think about it.. suicidal thoughts.. I've thought about it, but I'm not. Realizing the kind of pain my father is in, it will hurt him and others if they lose a close one..

all the best

o.

If the only time he is crying is when he is alone, it probably means that he is trying to save face around you and your brother and keep you from worrying, but I'm sure it would make him feel better for you to go and talk to him.

I wish your mom the best of luck with this and I hopes the situation can be resolved without any complications and as fast as possible.

And it is spelled "cyst".

as much as this is a trying time for you b/c your mother is sick, you're fathers' wife is sick, the woman who he promised till death do they part. You need to comfort each other, don't go in there and confront him like "dad you're crying!", but offer words of encouragement that he needs to hear , it'll make you both feel better and less awkward  

 

all the best

I understand where your coming from.. im not just gonna go in there and say that.. but he's not in there anymore.. I tihnk he probably went outside..

There maybe more of a chance that she will be fine than you have realised, find out whats happening and play an active role in hoping for the best or preparing for the worst rather than sitting alone worrying.  Not only will you add to your depression but also to your father's worries about his wife and his children, show him you love him and though you still need him show him that you are there for him too.

That reaction from him means that he really cares for your mom. Any time a person has to go to the hospital the situation is serious. If it is a recurrent situation, that just makes it that much harder for the people it affects.

If the only time he is crying is when he is alone, it probably means that he is trying to save face around you and your brother and keep you from worrying, but I'm sure it would make him feel better for you to go and talk to him.  

I wish your mom the best of luck with this and I hopes the situation can be resolved without any complications and as fast as possible.

Thank you.

I understand about that part about going and talking to him and all.. but as I said as much as I would love to, we have our past differences. That doesn't mean we completely hate, or dislike each other. What i'm trying to say is, its going to be awkward..
