This is one time that I am either disgusted or have the feeling a little down. I really don't mind the funny looking face , the loss of so much weight, or people not recognizing me. I was always the one my kids came to for advice or when they needed something. It just burns me that they can be so unconcerened or offer help when I need some. I understand they have their own lives and families. I just have to get it into my head that I must have been raised with a different idea of helping others and especially helping family and friends. Thanks for letting me blow off steam. Like they say, "It all comes out in the wash".
