Well we support my wifes little bro and sis and contribute to her aunt and her family who look after them.

Thankfully the rest of the family have not tried sob stories. When My wifes Lola was il we sent emgency money but so did all family or contributed with time and effort if they had no money.

It seemed only right to send what we could to help as looking after loved ones is far more important. Although the Wifes Lola passed away befor ehse could return the extra money we and others aboad sent back meant she had her pain eased and passed away as peacefully as possible.

We could have used the money elsewhere but the comfort it gave my Wife and myself (Lola was very good to the Wife and I) was better than a Luxury holiday.
