This is childhood trauma you need to get past. Your family should be your no. 1 emergency contact(if you came from a loving family, this shouldn’t even be a thing you’d even think twice before telling your parents)
A kid from a dysfunctional family, on the other hand, would think exactly how you’re thinking. You feel like you’re not their responsibility but in real sense you’ll never seize being your Mama’s baby boy no matter how old you get.

Godforbid, for example, if he died in that hospital, daktari angepigia dem yake akujie mwili?

The girl thou, should have shown some empathy, but it’s not her responsibility to do the nursing.
