Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

My mom isn't handling things good at the moment either. Uncle is stable but they told her he would never really get any better. They sent him home but said he will never be able to work or be off oxygen. He has been a heavy smoker most his life but even the doctor said that it is more because of paint fumes he has inhaled at work for 40 years that has caused all the damage. Cigarettes didn't help matters I know but it's unfair that his workplace won't have to take any responsibility for any of it just because He smoked. He is so weak and struggles for every breath. My mom is so upset.

He's only 46, never smoked, always been healthy and active...go figure.

No it isn't. But nothing ever is.
Let's all have a drink and a cookie.

None of it is for anyone...

Not trying to lure you away from the Pond, but if you need additional distractions maybe try the 'Dumbest things people say...' thread in the hopes of a laugh, or Sumi's 'Quotes & Thoughts' thread for a little inspiration. I wish there was something I could say to make you both feel better.
