My parents, two brothers and one sister all got their covid vaccines. It's just one brother and I who haven't got ours....nor will we.
Let's just say it's sad to see what occuring. My dad seems much more tired all the time, and gets constant headaches all the time. He regrets getting the vaccine.....and blames what's going on with him on the vaccine. So he's not in denial. My mom, on the other hand is in denial. She's not too bad off in health. But seems to tire more easily. My one brother is okay it seems.......but the other one has been feeling more sickly lately. Sister is also breaking out more with rashes. She's had issues with allergies....so who knows there.
It hurts me to witness this. My family isn't stupid, or ignorant or senile as some on here may think. They're all huge Trump supporters but 'trust' science and the news about covid. They were afraid.....and felt they were 'protecting others' if they took the vaccine. My mom is still afraid and still wears her mask everywhere.....and still pushes for me to get vaccinated. (I already was exposed to covid from work, never got sick and later tested positive for the antibodies.) But that's not good enough for her.
Just sad over all of this. I hate bring up stuff and drama about my family, but it's been really dwelling on my heart.
You can scream at a wall, but it's not going to change.
No, your uncle did, you corrected his stepping out of his place. Good on you, I’m sure it wasn’t an easy thing to do but it was the right thing to do, you now can carry on with your integrity in tact knowing you did the right thing when you had the chance.
Thanks very much for the support! When I said I stepped out of my place I didn't mean I thought the correction itself was wrong. It was more a recognition that the correction, ideally, would not have come from me due to my "place" in the natural order or hierarchy of our family. Two levels of both authority and wisdom exist above me with my parents, Aunts and Uncles being my elders and with my Grandparents being the eldest. I spoke up to the offender only after I brought the case before all my other elders and they refused to take any action. I imagine the mixed feelings I experienced after asserting moral authority in this situation are probably shared by most other "whistleblowers."
