Holiday tales of woe...add your own

[Big McLargehuge]

when i was 14 my dad went into heart rejection on his second transplanted heart the day after my birthday, sep. 19, and ended up in the hospital waiting for a heart transplant till january. we spent that christmas eve in the hospital, you have no idea how hard it is to sleep in a hospital room with your barely functioning dad and some old dying geezer. Not to mention my two brothers and my mom. The bright side is everyone takes pity on you and you wake up with more gifts than you know what to do with.
