13. got him

1993 Aug 23 - 5 AM

When I went into my garage, I saw mom and dad smashing their bodies against the garage door. It was getting bent enough that lots of light was coming into the garage... I think the door is busted for sure now.

It smelled so bad as soon as I opened the door. There was a lot of blood too..

I came up behind my dad first, and tried to loop the extension cord around him. But he was thrashing really hard and I couldn't do it right.

Dad was staring right at me and crunching his teeth like he was really mad and wanted to take a bite out of me. I've never seen him like that. He was always really chill...

I had to pull him into the house, and separate him from my mom. He was really clumsy and I ran around the kitchen island while he stumbled over the chairs.

I had to rush outside into the backyard. It took me a while, but I managed to wrap him up to the crabapple tree. He's sort of calmed down now..

I wish there was somebody out there I could talk to about this. But it's just me and my computer now. I don't know how to help them, aside from keeping them from hurting themselves.

I need to get my mom next. I can probably tie her to the fence or something. I hate this so much.
