Last night, I caught up with an elderly one who has survived breast cancer, uterine cancer, horrible seasonal allergies. She’s recovering from a major surgery and has deep relationships with many people, old and young, near and far. When she said she’s tired of them constantly calling and visiting her, in sickness and in health, I couldn’t feel sorry for her.

I can't feel sorry for her, either. On the other hand, you have to recognize her deep physical and emotional exhaustion after all those illnesses.
ReplyDeletewell, I can't stand most of my relatives, so I can understand, but on the other hand, perhaps not surprisingly, they don't contact me.
