Think about this

Do as you see fit but consider this
If your getting up in age, maybe having health issues or maybe still in great shape especially if you live alone or if you have a good friend who lives alone, maybe a relative, call them once a day or have a good idea someone who knows you, calls them once a day even for a couple of minutes
Nice idea if someone calls you as well
You need not agree with me but think about what im going to tell you all
Im going to a wake today and funeral tomorrow. My daughter in laws mother, 64 yrs old, no serious healthy issues..... Not a out going person, bit of a recluse and difficult
My DIL doesn't speak to her everyday, she talks to her a few times a week
I do know my DIL works long hours and has two big dogs and three wild Indian's running around at home, so who calls who? I have no idea
Sunday night I got a panic call from my son to get over there asap
Nobody had heard from his MIL and calls made it apparent nobody else did as well
My DIL travled the 45 minutes to get to her moms house, my son had to stay home with kids until I got there
My DIL found her mom dead on the kitchen. floor
Looks like she tripped or fell, hit her face on floor and bleed out.
Its thought now she died Wednesday or so and she was found Sunday evening
Not a pleasant site and having found my own mother dead its nothing I wish on anyone
This woman would have passed either way but maybe she didnt have to lie on a cold kitchen floor for four days and maybe my DIL wouldn't have to have to see her mom like that
Sucks all the way around
I have a good buddy who is partially disabled, he goes out as much as possible and I as well as few others do talk to him daily.
I call him even when I dont want to....I know if he falls he most likely won't be able to get up
It was thirteen years ago,,,,I was working 12 hours on a Saturday, got home in time for a birthday party.....I didnt call my mom that day, talked to her the night before
After everyone started to go home I called mom, busy signal for over a hour....Who the F is she talking to at this time for this long? Operator said phone is off the hook.....My son in law drove me over there......her apartment was dark and the shades were still open....
I carried guilt for months, I learned months later she was heard from around 4 or 5...
She had a bad heart and she collapsed on to her couch looks like she was trying to call someone......She was dead for about maybe 4/5 hours so it was just her time but I still wish I could have spoken to her one last time that day
Just wanted to share this with some of you
have a good day
