In general, I’d say it’s better to try to help others, and know that if they don’t appreciate it now, that (1) You did do the right thing, and (2) Perhaps in the future, they’ll look back in be greatful.

Family is a weird little thing, especially that of blood.

And finally, I believe it’s this time of year. A lot of people are complaining of being ill, being sad, depressed, etc, myself included. We just have to trust in our support network, ask them to do what they can for us, and look after ourselves the best we can. And when we have a little strength and others want our help, give in a way that means you gain from it, too. Good luck
