Another Sad News - But I Am IMMUNE

Received a call from Young aunt 2 days back:
"Gma has got a lump in her throat. May have to operate. BUT we are not to know...."

Politics is everywhere, even at home.
I just feel sad for the old lady.
Sad - because her children are not united.
Sad - because they are 'bad-mouthing' their own siblings

This time, AGAIN, A told B that C said this and A told B that C said it's from D and D from E, and A said she will ignore and B told me A said we are not supposed to know this and ABCDEFG #&*%^@#... just when is this going to end - aren't they tired?? No - TOO ENG!

Of course, i feel sad and worried that at this age of 70plus, she may have to undergo the operation. But there is nothing i can do, because I am just the grand-daughter. Someone who once respected and visited her regular but gotten the most sarcastism from her.

I thought: doesn't they ever wonder, other than this niece, other than this grand-daughter, who else pays them such regular visits, who else bothers to call to just chat with them? So this is what it means by 'taking advantage of one'??

I told Dad about this and I also asked him: why is it that siblings have to bad-mouth siblings. Guess what my dad says: The pillar is not strong and there is no love in the family, that's what causes all this. Ya, my dad is so right.

God Bless and I hope everything goes well.
