[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know.  The story just doesn't ring authentic. A 50 year old woman who expects to be waited on hand and foot?  Come on.  No matter how spoiled Mary was, expecting dear old mom to cook her meals for her?  Come on.  She was probably cooking for her elderly mom, and doing yard work, and making sure granny took her medicines, shlepping her to all her doctor's appointments, and bathing her if needed, and running up and down the basement stairs to do the laundry for the two of them, and doing the grocery shopping, and cleaning the house, and walking the dog, and keeping her company in the evenings when they sat together watching t.v.  Did I forget anything else full time care taking children do for their elderly parents?  I don't buy the granny-was-cooking-Mary's-meals-and-making-her-bed story.[/quote]

I agree. And I think that there appears to be some pretty strong hostility from Larla's branch of the family toward Mary. I don't get that.

I also wonder how Larla became so close to her great aunt but says she hardly knows Mary, who was living in the same house with Thelma. How can you spend so much time with an elderly relative but hardly know her own daughter who lives with her?

There's a lot that just doesn't make sense in this story.
