I& #39;m in a very bad place this evening. My brother has been trying to pick a fight about the vaccines and finally got to me about an hour ago.

He claims that he can get blood clots if he& #39;s around anyone who& #39;s had the Covid vaccine. He wants nothing to do with me. (1/)

He& #39;s got afib and is on blood thinners. But for some reason my brother seems to think that I& #39;m shedding something because of the vaccine and it would make him get blood clots and he could stroke out.

I& #39;m not kidding. That& #39;s what he said to me.

I& #39;m struggling to get insured so I can get that giant hernia fixed. I& #39;ll need someone to take care of my cat should I go into the hospital or if something worse happens. Curt agreed in the past that if I needed him to watch Pumpkin he would do so. He went back on that.

I& #39;m not welcome at Dad& #39;s house per my brother. I have no idea if Dad even knows Curt said these things to me or if he& #39;s even ok. Dad, according to Curt, hasn& #39;t been vaccinated either.

I haven& #39;t been well and am worried about what will happen to me.

I& #39;m worried about what will happen to Pumpkin, who is a rescue kitty from Pulaski, where I used to live. He had a rough life before I got him. I want nothing to happen to him.

I don& #39;t want him to go to a shelter should I die.

If I can get that operation - which isn& #39;t bloody likely w/o insurance - I& #39;ll need someone to watch him while I& #39;m in hospital.

I never felt so alone. It feels like I lost my brother and father, all due to this g-damn virus & the vaccine.

Why do anti-vaxxers fight this so??? The vaccine is needed if we& #39;re to overcome Covid. It& #39;s like they WANT the pandemic to continue killing people. The more the better as far as they& #39;re concerned.

I& #39;m scared. I don& #39;t know what& #39;s going to happen to me. And as a responsible pet parent, I thought I made sure that Pumpkin had somewhere to go if something happens to me. Now I don& #39;t know what to do.

I need your advice and prayers.

Curt & I went back and forth over this issue since about 11pm est. I finally told him I wanted no further emails but he persisted. So, I had to block him.

I can& #39;t believe I had to block my brother& #39;s email addy.

I never felt so alone.

P.S. I don& #39;t know what to do about Dad. I hope he& #39;s ok but I have no way of knowing if he agrees with what Curt told me. They& #39;ve been keeping me at arm& #39;s length to some degree for quite some time, but even more so since the pandemic began.

I don& #39;t know what to do.
