[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who was gravely ill in my early 39s, I’ve learned people can not be expected to come through when things are hard Most think a text checking in is the work of a saint [/quote] This is my mother. Throughout life she didn't visit her sister of brother when they were dying or her cousin or even close friends, but she considers herself a saint and sings her own praises often because she sat on her tush and called them now and then. Keep in mind she was barely working then, we were long since out of the house and dad worked a lot so she had plenty of time. She tells us often of her sacrifices sitting on the coach, sipping coffee and making a call (and then going to the gym, getting her nails done and shopping at Whole Foods). She was doing the Lord's work folks and she feels people don't praise her enough for all her sacrifice.[/quote]
