I just want my dad back

My dad called today to tell Me my grandmother was hospitalized with Covid and went on a rant about how communist Ohio is because she had to qualify for her treatments. And then he told me to up my vitamin d and my zinc because vaccines aren’t real. And when I told him I got vaccinated and the booster he got very concerned and told me they would eat me from the inside out and I had seriously harmed myself.

My dad used to be so welcoming and loving and kind. He gave me what I consider to be my best qualities. He raised me single handedly and worked so hard for me as a single dad. And he’s the only family I have left. And I can’t believe people think that what has happened isn’t harmful.

They stole our parents. And I want mine back.

EDIT: to everyone who commiserated and wrote kind words I am so grateful ❤️ this whole phenomenon can make a person feel so alone and I appreciate every kind word and laugh you all gave me. We’re not alone in this ❤️ also I tried to respond to all of you but I didn’t expect this many comments. Thank you all for the support and know I’m here for you too.
