36. Live by the Lie, Die by the Lie

Thu Oct 10, 2024, 09:17 AM

Oct 10

If the FIL doesn’t want to accept help from the government then that is his choice. His right to life. He is choosing poorly, but this is his decision.

So, listen up pops, quit calling your family for help. You have been offered help and your refusal proves that YOU sir do not care for yourself or your family and your making your family suffer because of your willful ignorance and lack of courage to change your way of thinking. I just feel bad for your family but for you sir not so much.

Live by the Lie, Die by the Lie.
