My husband's eldely older brother has seriously injured himself and is in the hospital. When he fell, he was desperately calling for help, but his wife who sleeps in another room did not hear him, because she was passed out drunk, like usual. The neighbor's heard and called for help. Firemen had to come to breakdown the door to get him to take him to the hospital. His face is injured, as well as his spinal cord. He has refused a suggested surgery. My husband's eldest sister, who also lives in Germany (near Munich), will see him tomorrow. My husband will likely join his other sister, who lives near us in Czech Republic, to drive to Munich. I'll stay home, which seems appropriate.

My brother-in-law is the same age as my recently departed father.
