Please...do you really need to fight?
What do you do when your grandma and your mother had a fight...about something serious?
My grandma, three years ago, was warned by her doctor to stop smoking because one of her veins...well...popped. It was good enough that she got well. She didn't stop smoking, assuming that the medicine that the doctor recomended, which my mom buys for her, will make everything better. To some knowledgeable readers, the blood is connected to everything in the body, if something's wrong with your blood, something's going to be wrong with you. That's what happened. Last year, both kidneys stopped working, so, we bring her to the hospital twice a week for dialysis. It's expensive. 1500Php for one session and 3000Php for the whole week. (>~<;) That's one of the causes why we aren't as rich as we used to. We cut down our expenses and don't enjoy much leisure as before. Back to the story; my grandma was now warned not to eat anything with pottasium, high sodium content and high fat sources- but she still does. No matter how she was warned, she was caught with the following: two "balot" with salt, salty foods, cigars, vinegar, bananas and a lot more of the stuff she wasn't allowed to eat or have. So, last night, Mother and grandma had a huge fight wherein they were really shouting. (If you were wondering what balot is, it's that duck egg that foreigners (yes, that's you) think to be so disgusting. It's delicious actually. It's high in fat and sodium though, worse if you put salt on it.)
I just want to say that I don't want fighting. Please stop! I don't want you guys to fight....I don't.
