Dear Lily Margrette:

I am sorry that your mother had a stroke and has a poor eyesight as a result, and that your father has a lung condition. I wish the two of them the best health that is possible for them. I am also sorry that you don’t have a safe place to go to, away from your husband and his family- not with your parents who are in ill health, living in a small house with your middle aged brother, and not with your other older brother, who is living with in a one bedroom flat with his wife, having no accommodations for you and your three kids.

Does it make you envious of your husband’s parents and sisters, for having better health and much more wealth,  bigger homes, better luck, perhaps, compared to your family?
