I can think of two specific examples:
When I was still in school, one of our sisters got a detached retina from playing raquetball without glasses. She was in the hospital for over a month, with both eyes bandaged, as the eyes work in sympathy with each other. We all took turns staying with her during visiting hours, as her family lived too far away to stay with her during the week. Fortunately, her sight was saved!
When I was going through my divorce, one of my closest sisters who lived in San Diego at the time called me almost
daily to ask how I was doing. God bless her - I was a mess! But I finally started to turn the corner, and call
her one day, and said, "What are you doing this weekend?" She asked why, and I responded, "You've been so good to me, I thought a quick trip to Tiajuana was in order!" I later found out that a quickie divorce didn't solve the property problems, but we still had a great time.
And of course, most of ya'll have heard me tell the story of our sister,
Sarai.
