The Struggles of an Unemployed Father

A poem describing the difficulties my father has faced as a result of his unemployment for the past four years

“Every father should remember one day his son will follow his example, not his advice.” — Charles Kettering

My life is a roller coaster. My daughter is suffering from severe neurological disorders. My wife is suffering from thyroid and high blood pressure. My son is pursuing a pharmacy degree at college. I don’t know what I am going to do. I worked as a network engineer for more than 20 years at Guardian Life. Unfortunately, I had to sacrifice my career to care of my daughter. She can’t eat. She can’t talk. She is nonverbal. She suffers from over a hundred seizures a day. No one is there to take care of her. I have to do all I can to find treatments for her. I have to do all I can to ensure she has a future. I need to do whatever I can to support my family with the money I have earned throughout my career. I have to find a way to overcome this financial crisis.

On the other hand, I am scared my wife will collapse from a stroke. She is tired. She is stressed. I need to take care of her. I need to help my son pursue his dreams. Becoming a pharmacist has been a dream of his since he was little. It would mean the world to see him achieve this goal. I want to get back to work desperately, but I fear my family will collapse if I did. I’m in a tough spot. The only thing I can do is continue to move forward. Move forward with the hope that one-day things will get better. I don’t know when that day will come, but I can’t give up now. I believe that one day the light will shine for my family. I will wait for that day. That is all I could ever ask for.

Note to the reader: It’s been an enormous pleasure getting to write poems about my family. I dedicate this poem to my dad, Rajagopal Santhanam. He will never give up without a fight. My sister has been suffering from autism, seizures, and dyskinesia her whole life (18 years), and my dad continues to believe that she will feel better one day. I will always admire his ability to stay mentally strong in challenging circumstances. Thank you for inspiring me and many others, dad. Take care and stay safe.
