Needless to say, I've come to realize that folks who have good family connections and support systems are some of the luckiest effers on the face of the earth ... For those of us that don't have those things? ... Well, we're just plain effed!

This is based on a lengthy illness last month and nary a soul being there for me when it counted ... Those numbers are now no longer in my phone ... I don't have time for the insincerity and lame excuses of the "Call If You Need Anything" crowd that doesn't really mean it when they say it!
