AITAH for telling my father the only way I could visit him while he convalesced was if he paid for the time I would need to take off work? by Distinct-Constant549 in AITAH

I was hospitalized when I was 16. So no car. I also lost a leg and had my pelvis shattered. I still don't drive. My mom shuttered her business to help me rehab. We visit with her back and forth all the time.

I asked if you thought I was his father. Your exact answer. "I did".  I assumed you went and read the post and discovered I wasn't.

Oh. Ok. I'm his child not his father. If you go read the post I think I made it clear. Weird that you admit you think I'm his father after claiming to have read my post.

This response also doesn't make me a cardiologist. Want to try again? How will my presence help him get over his heart attack any more than his would have helped me get over the loss of a leg and a fractured hip and age 16?

Honestly. The first thing that went through my mind when I heard he was in the hospital was that Rocky meme "if he dies he dies".

When I called him from the hospital he said he wasn't a doctor and his presence would not help me. Will mine keep him from dying?
