I know all of us are heading to this destination which is death. Nobody and no one is immortal except for God above. Most of us heard the saying "Cheat death" by escaping from incidents that may caused this sad tragedy. On the other hand, since you're the living, can you practically imagine if you could rip off from death? Or you just simply would? Like hyenas waits and grabs food from the other fellow predators. Can you live like this and actually treat someone who just passed away that belongs to your bloodline?
Me and my brother actually saw something like this 2 weeks ago and the worst part is their happened to be one of the relatives. Not just one but a couple of them. They ripped of the death of our Grand mum which happens to be their mother. She was put in a crampy innefective hospital after having a stroke despite of her money in the bank. The obvious part is she wasn't admitted to an ICU because according to the first hyena, ICU costs too much. When she died, my grand mum was taken at a morgue that again cost less because its an NBI funeral for victims of unsolved murder and massacred cases. Again, its because of money being ripped off from her despite of her diamond jewerlies, a hefty bank account, and a car that you can sell if worst comes to worst. Now tell me this is proper. Tsk tsk. Can you actually imagine yourself being the daughter or a son doing this gruesome act for your dying mother?

heeey!!!
oh my gosh!!!! I thought it was bad the family not rushing to their mum's bedside but to hear they have scrimped on sorting her final journey is awful!!!! How dare they not have her admitted ti ICU because of cost, would they make that decision if it was their life atstake!!!
It just sounds as though they have scrimped on her final journey to ensure a bigger cut of inheritance.....It would be great if at the reading of the will she had left it all to charity!!!!
Even if i had no money whatsoever, i would go into debt if it meant better care for my family!!!!
AAAAAARGGGH you must be so angry...I am and its not my relative!!!!
hugs

Oh definitely Jessica. I feel the same way too. That was the same feeling that I had during that time. Was really fuming mad. Your statement and intentions are the ones that's in my heart and in my mind too. T'm glad there's people like us. Thank you for sharing your sentiments. God bless you. Take care.

nobody deserves to be treated that way especially if it happens to be your mom or dad or any memebers of the familly whatsoever even you have done cruel things in the past. learn to forgive and forget with your whole heart. and money is a very unreasonable thing to do such thing to your mother right? even so moeny is not a good reason to make as an excuse. its f***d up!
