Dear Diary: Me And My Siblings

When I was just starting on my dialysis my two siblings are still in school at that time while my eldest brother (the fattest) was just taking jobs that could not support a family because he was just basically a welder because he just took a machine shop trade instead of going to college but after a while he too went again in school to study Education so that he could be a teacher.

Luckily my other brother got accepted in a paper mill near us so he went to work there until now. He was the one who helped me right from the start, almost giving me all his salary to pay for my dialysis. There was a time that he took a loan just to also pay for my dialysis which was just six times only per month that went on for about 2 years at that time because I am not using any health insurance and we are paying out of pocket.

His marriage was also affected because of me and he married late for the same reason. I am very indebted about my brother's long-suffering about my situation and if I will be given an opportunity I will just repay him back because he already had spent an awful lot of money for my sake. He still gives me financial assistance until now.

My youngest sibling, my sister thankfully abides to the persuasion of my sister-in-law and practiced her degree as an elementary school teacher. She doesn't like that profession at first because it wasn't her choice pick for a career, she wanted to be a physical therapist but due to lack of money to support her my parents just asked her to take other course in the state university.

She did graduated and passed the board exam too. Now she is currently teaching in town near us and would have a good future ahead of her because teachers can have a salary that would raise over time as I have learned, now she is not dependent on what her husband would give her because she has her own money now.

She is also a supportive sibling unlike my eldest brother which really doesn't help me that much but it is okay because none of them including my parents are not obligated to help me, they are just helpful especially my brother that I followed because he was taught to be a good person by my church (mcgi.org) as we have the same religion along with my mother while my other family members are Catholics.
