Family (tw)

I have a lot of issues with my family. I don't how to explain this shit.

My step-father is dying of cancer. He and mum live overseas. Tonight mum has been telling me of some of their issues. I don't go into details but he wants to send her back home here. She's suicidal. As someone who's suicidal, with history of abuse from her ,it's hard to talk her out of it. Like what kid has to council their parent,into let alone to not doing the very thing they want to do.

I'm sorry.
