What a lovely story, Liz. It's great that you found out the cause of her neediness. Go to show that we can never know what other people are going through. You did a great job of sharing it.

    I'd be miserable to be around if had even one the miseries Sandra suffers. Thanks for weighing in.

Your friend sounds so much like my own�they must be sisters. Every time you call her she thinks she has cancer. So far she has nothing, but one of these days her prediction might come true.

Hello Liz.

Good on you for taking the time to give Sandra a call and put a little light in her day. It's really hard to tell from the outside what people are experiencing on the inside.

I commend you for doing the right thing. I think you did a very good thing.

Robert

You are such a sweetie! Thank you for bringing joy to the sourpusses in your life as well as to your happier comrades! It sounds like she really needs to be acknowledged. As defense mechanisms go, asking to be remembered is not a bad one to have.

This is great! We just never know what someone else is going through. Sometimes it's difficult to be unannoyed by annoying behavior, but everything needs perspective. Thank you for sharing this well written story. Hugs to you.

I enjoyed your post on Sandra's birthday, Liz. You did a great job describing her. I believe she is longing for attention, and her and the way she goes about it is the only way she knows. Kudos to you for giving her a sweet call on her special day. Hopefully that bright spot in her day lasted longer than normal and she had some joy.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

Somebody who looks after frail, ailing, and ageing parents can't be all bad, but I do know a lady, who send multiple emails to people and you accidentally donrvnotice, she's on your case, not mine, because I would tell her not to send me anything, I may not respond, but my gentle wife sometimes cops it. Well done Liz, blessings Roy

Liz,

Okay..."Sandra is not, euphemistically speaking, well-liked. She is infamously whiny and utterly self-absorbed." Okay...Nice of you to
try. Perhaps next year give yourself a well deserved break and forget
the offering of a happy - you know it won't be - birthday to your
"friend"

Super great she overcame all those health issues...I would be dead in the grave and happy to be so.

Thanks for sharing your nightly cheer,

AnnaLinda
