Personal Note:

Just cut my morning forest walk about short, it was 10ºF out, no rain, or snow, but the forest floor was 'crunchy", and I did not have traction device on my boots.

My friend in hospital, is doing better. But I spent a couple of hours arguing with family members about his DNR.

Part of it is just that people don’t know enough to know what they don’t know.

Coffee me please.

Unsolicited advice:

If you have a family member that you have had no contact with in years, live in another state, and they become seriously ill. You arrive in the hospital room, and start giving orders to the doc and the nurses. Please be prepared to get push back from friends and family that actually know what is what.

And No we won't form a "prayer circle" to make you feel better.

end rant.

@corlin You have my sympathy. I hope the rant helped.

@corlin i would just continue to stay away. send a card. flowers. whatever. but if i'd had no contact, it seems disingenuous to pretend to care when i haven't thus far.

but then perhaps i'm a cold unfeeling bitch. 🙄

@singlemaltgirl
There, is money and property, and a will to contest.

F**k them all.

@corlin oooh boy. then i would definitely be out. money makes peeps gross. i've seen it so many times. to me, it's not worth my mental well being to fight w/ greedy assholes. they can fight over the carcass.

@corlin @singlemaltgirl If your friend comtinues to recover, and I sincerely hope for that, he needs to consult his lawyer and get issues locked up so that these intruding relatives are not ultimately controlling matters. I hate that people can be like that.

@singlemaltgirl @corlin Wondering if it was the “patient” that had removed the pushy people from his life.

@XSGeek @corlin
Guilty as charged. I have preferences but have taken no action to ensure they are documented with a lawyer or other authority. Need to fix that.

@XSGeek
Yep he has all that, he and I have the same lawyer.

Some People are just assholes.

@XSGeek

There was a delay between the time the asshole arrived, and the lawyer could get there. So they all called me.

It is sorted now.

@corlin Ugh. You just described my sister in law. She then went on to charge the stage at the church funeral and sing 2 songs "in honor of her mother" and held everyone hostage to her narcissism. She's fun. Not.
