I am done with bullshit. Why?
My mother-in-law died in April. She was sick. In 1995 she was given 6 months to live. Its been a nail-biter since then.
In May - right after my birthday - a good friend of mine hung himself. I found this out because another friend walked int his apartment and found him. Dead and hanging.
Later in May, my estranged niece was murdered n Bancroft. I hadn't seen her in years, but I have some great memories from when she was a kid.
My mother died in June. She did not leave a will, or have any insurance. I spent three years caring fr her, taking her to doctor's appointments, taking her to therapy, calling 911 on a regular basis. I'm left to deal with her mountain of debt, and left to care for my severely handicapped sister. What? I'm supposed to put my sister in a home? That's not going to happen. She'd die there.
I could live without the $183,000 debt, though. Thanks, mom! (I did try to get her finances in order. I couldn't force her - or get power of attorney).
My aunt just told me that my grabdfather's second wife finally succomed that's been eating away at her for years. Even though she wasn't my biological grandmother, she was good woman.
So, if you whine about something, forgive me for not giving a fuck.

Do whatever you have to do to take care of your family. You are a good; no, great person or you would not have put up this post. I feel for you in more ways than I can count. I choose to take care of several relatives; a sister, a brother and a nephew and they keep me near the edge some of the time but that is OK. Dad is now pretty much disabled and has turned over the farm to me, so I do the internet marketing thing while running a profitable organic farm.
You do what you have to do to take care of your own and I respect you for that.
Keep up the good fight and I do know that you really do care or you wold not have put up this post.
HIi me up any time!
