I Hate the Color White

THIS HIT ME HARD.. I love my dad so much he is always so happy reading  this just made me, so,so,so,so,so,so,so,so happy that he is still with me today!

I have to say, though this was short it was quite impactful as it dealt with how ugly having someone so close to you be stuck in a hospital looking like a shell of themselves. I'm so grateful that none of my immediate family has ever been put in the hospital but I remember my late cousin who was so boisterous and full of life stuck in the hospital, weak and frail, and so quiet. He was getting better until he suddenly wasn't. I remember I didn't feel much until we went to the wake and suddenly when I heard the speech I started bawling without noticing. 

There was such a solemn feeling to myself as I went through the text, there wasn't anything dramatic and it all felt so realistic and grounded. Bleak but what else do you expect? Regardless, the fact that there isn't a traditional happy ending and it just leaves you in an ambiguous mood is quite the best course of action especially if this was supposed to be a short yet emotionally charged story. Great job with this, I hope whatever is going on with your life, you manage to find peace with the experience and find a calm moment to rest from everything.

I can't continue this I- I can't. I love my dad too damn much to imagine this. My dad is always so happy who's happily wake me up from school and give me a hug when I'm down. I love dad more than I'll ever love mom. I can't

Oh, Kristi, it was such a powerful game! First and foremost, I read the devlog and I'm sorry you had to go through such an experience. The game reminded me of some of my own experiences with hospitals too (which also included, for one of them, seeing one of my parents with tubes) and you transcribed very well this sensation of being powerless, forced to face a situation we do not want and that we would like to change. I do think the game is even more powerful as its message goes even beyond this specific situation: anyone who's ever had to pretend to be strong for the sake of others can relate, as you narrate this experience wonderfully.

Thanks for making this and sharing a part of yourself, it was emotional and powerful. I wish you and your family all the best!

That ending line, ouch...

Best wishes, I hope things will get better for you all shortly.
