When we pull up to my sister’s house, my oldest niece takes her turn on the phone. We laugh, play, eat and enjoy each other’s company. Before long, the day comes to a close and I head home; a near-dead device in tow.
Can you see where this is going? A Turn for the Worst By Tuesday, the weather is rainy and chilly again. I get a text from my sister that says one of the girls got sick. I text my well-wishes back. By Wednesday, my sister and her other daughter are sick. By Thursday, it’s her husband. By early Friday morning, my number’s up too.
