My brother’s just left. Not feeling great bout it, perla because yes he’s my brother and I’ve missed the fucker, mainly because he’s just left with an infected leg.

Couple of days ago he had to change the dressings on it. And I’m thinking it’s a cut or a nasty scrape like he’d said. So, as Im cutting squares of bandage (already kinda sus for a cut), he rolls up his pant leg and There. There is a chunk of flesh missing. Boy had a hole in his flesh and was like “Just a cut that got a little infected, no worries!” YES WORRIES. I HAVE MANY WORRIES WHY IS YOUR FLESH GONE, WHITE BOY????

#it has to be a family thing #’oh don’t worry it’s just grievous bodily harm!’#- every person on my mother’s side (including myself)#like BOY. you are missing FLESH. that is a hole I can stick my finger into!#and I’ve got a strong stomach I’ve been chopped up plenty times myself #but. when it’s your little sibling. and it’s clearly not been treated or allowed to drain #he’s training to be a medic and a part of me was like ‘you better learn from this son’#chriiissssssst #he refused to take any of my pain meds and I finally got him to take a bottle in the end #it’s 100% some sort of family thing #dad’s side of the family stubs their toe and they languish in bed for a week like a sick victorian #‘no worries!’ oh fuck off #it’s looking better now at least #but still.
