Forward note: This may be jumbled, and out of order, so I'm sorry. I got home from the ER around 2 or 3 this morning, and my brain is out of whack.
Last night, my sister, the MOH, and I had what began as a very small argument. She snapped at me in front of other people, and rather than cause a huge scene, I decided to leave (this was at my parents house) and go home. I was outside, talking to MOB, and MOH comes out. She won't let go of what was said inside (which was really, nothing big.) She starts calling me a self-centered b****, says that I only care about myself, etc. I respond back (no, I am not completely not at fault - I will admit that. When I am in a verbal disagreement, I have a tendency to push back as far as I can). Something was said, and she began to hit and punch me, repeatedly. MOB could do nothing to stop it. At this point, MOH's husband comes out of the house, gets in my face, and shows his fists. I say I am scared, for him to back off of me, and he laughs in my face, says I am a little baby and need to grow a pair. I am shaking at this point, and hyperventalating. (I am diagnosed with depression, anxiety, stress, and PTSD, all of which I am working on with therapy and medication).
Finally, MOB is able to get me into her car (I went willingly) and she takes me to the ER, where I am put in the mental health section, and evaluated. I am given a large dose of Xanax to calm me down, and a Lortab for the migraine I have developed.
I am aware that firing a BM or MOH is not allowed. However, do extenuating circumstances come into play in the decision here? I have two attendents - MOH is one of them. Her husband and oldest son were to be ushers.
I'm just not sure what to do right now. FI is 1000 miles away, and as much as I want his bear hugs right now, I know I can't ask him to leave a family vacation for this. Thankfully, he is calling me all the time.
I am calmer than I was yesterday, and am out of work for three days (drs orders). So, I'm working the best I can to calm down and think that I am rational right now. I just am not sure what is going to happen, and what hurts me the most is that this is tearing the family apart, which I don't want.
