Family talk- [cw: COVID19, death]
so apparently, all of my family is full on savage. So mom always starts death talks like this (and mind you, I& #39;m on hold with a nurse in the middle of work), "are you busy? Are you sitting down?" And you get 3 secs to just say yes cuz who died

So auntie G has 2 kids, son and daughter. And a rocky relationship with both. Son married a bitch who doesn& #39;t like our side of the family, so already none of us like her. Auntie G had lived with daughter until she put her out cuz she didn& #39;t pay rent.
She was charging auntie rent because Aunt G didn& #39;t clean her room (the fuck?) or really take care of the grandkids, but honestly there& #39;s some deep-seated resentment issues. But that ain& #39;t my business.
So Aunt C also lives in NY and kept in touch with Aunt G, and has apparently shamed daughter about this. So Aunt C was the one to keep mom updated, cuz apparently the family contact on Aunt G& #39;s hospital paperwork was her son. Her daughter was lower on the list of people to know.
So Aunt C called mom when she found out and she& #39;s broken up and hollerin on the phone ("as she does," says mom, like shit isn& #39;t she your sis too) and then Aunt C goes "guess her daughter regrets putting her out like she did".
S h i t, Aunt C, come for BLOOD

Mom just shrugs and is like "well, she isn& #39;t wrong. She had a basement apartment in hrr house, nobody needed to go down there." I just shook my head.
Asked how mom was doing and she was like "well I& #39;m okay", and goes "She lived a long time anyway."
Me: but mom aren& #39;t you older

So in the end everyone is throwing mad shade. All I can do is shake my head. Aunt G ended up being alone her final months and she didn& #39;t need to be cuz folks are petty.
Downside: we also probably won& #39;t get to have a funeral hecause of the pandemic.
Upside: bereavement time off?
