Family FeudsPooster tells us that a relative was once sent to the shops to buy an onion, while the rest of the family went on a daytrip while he was gone. Meanwhile, whole sections of our extended kin still haven't got over a wedding brawl fifteen years ago – tell us about families at war.

Fuck, that's a horrible story.I feel terribly sorry for you, but also your Dad. Without that accident he'd still be the nice guy he was before. He would have had a good relationship with his kids instead of losing contact with you. Was he ever diagnosed with anything? Was it some form of physical change to his brain?

..no actual diagnosis, obviousy it was looked into but the brain is a big complicated thing and his got badly damaged
It was 7 years between the accident and the divorce. We tried to get to him but he wasn't having it.
I'm just tresuring the time we have now, every cloud and that ;o)

I am not a doctor but I made a documenatry about people with certain traumatic brain injury, and it sounds like he might have experienced damage to the frontal lobes. This is damage often associated with car accidents and often leaves people devoid of emotions and social skills - for example they will look at their family and know that they should love them, but not be capable of feeling the emotion - it is a terrible type of brain injury for love ones to have to deal with and you have my sympathy that it should happen to your Dad. Of course I could be way of the mark...
