My father was taken from the hospital almost seven years ago by my sister. She filed a harassment charge against me on day one so that I could not see him. That caused all kinds of dominos to fall resulting in so much trouble
I have not gotten to lay eyes on him or speak to him in seven years nor do I know his condition. I never got to ask if he wanted to see me or not, but he and I lived next door to each other for forty years and then he was just gone. I'm afraid he is really sick and scared to find out. I want to see him so badly and I have no money for a lawyer. She dropped the harassment charge a few years ago and had to pay a fee to do so.
I never ask her for help and I've even been homeless this year because I'm having a hard time getting anywhere with only a social security check. I had been a recovered addict from opioids for just a few months before he was taken. He never had the chance to see me well, and now I have jaundice and don't know why. I'm so scared. I just want my daddy to hug.

I'll just add my 2 cents' worth.

Not to be mean, but it sounds like sister took dad away to keep him safe. Can you think through the past and see if maybe, just maybe, you were too involved in dad's life and maybe sister sees you as a negative influence? She could just be protecting her dad. Not just being mean to you.

You need to take care of YOU before you can reach out to sister. Jaundice is very serious and you must have that looked at. It is most likely due to the addiction/abuse of the opiates. You probably feel rotten and this isn't helping--obsessing over dad.

Get yourself to an ER and likely you will be admitted. If they ask if you have family, you can tell them about your dad & sister. Maybe the time to start to heal as a family is when you show you are willing to deal with your own health and sobriety.

Also, the hospital can help you find help for your living conditions, etc. You may have to ASK, but use that opportunity to get the help you need.

Good Luck.

I'm so sorry Elizabeth. Your sister likely separated from you because of your addiction. Please go to a clinic, have your liver checked and take care of yourself, and keep working on your sobriety. Best wishes

You have jaundice because your liver is not working correctly. You need to get to a hospital. Most have a Charity dept where you can get money to pay for your hospital bills. Maybe they can help you get on Medicaid if ur not already. If 65 you should be on Medicare. If you received SS before 65, Medicare is automatic A&B and the premium is taken out of ur SS at 65.
