I am the old one, and when I was sick, my niece came to take care of me, so I try to be there for her, her life was not easy with her parents, they really did not help her much and were dependent on her for income, and taught her lots of not good things, like how to shop lift. Oddly enough she turned out to be a good person and now she is a loving mom, So, unbeknownst to her, she is my main heir. heh, I worry so much about the next generation and the isolations of the families, I feel like the last generation that talks to second cousins. everyone in my family is so isolated from each other.
