on a less light note

I'm worried about my dad, whose nose has been bleeding for about a week now, on and off. and only NOW has my mum managed to get him to a doctor, who sucked at his job, put some kind of oversized tampon in my dad's nose and sent him home to go to a walk-in clinic on friday to get examined when the bleeding has stopped. But I know my dad, once the bleeding stops, he'll say everything's fine and refuse to go to get checked up. and my mum being super opinionated and needing to get her way about every little fucking thing is suddenly oh so weak and doesn't MAKE him go. these people are nuts.
