Yes I have had that too. It is really disingenuous because most people I meet have no one.

I no longer believe that medical care doesn't believe you have no one, simply put, they don't care.

It is just another way to cut corners on expenses.

The "friend" is the perfect person to watch you. If this is farmed out to a stranger there is the possibility that the family will sue the stranger's company if something goes wrong. But most people won't sue the friend.
