There would be a deductible, have to pay for some medications at home, that could be an ongoing struggle but it wouldn’t be a $15k bill immediately. This seems like it was just a story to get money.

If you give them money once they will look at you as "Ms. Money Bags". It was a tough to move away from them because they try harder to pull you into their drama. They think, I am the bad person. I let them think that because I don't care. Always remember they will never give your money back.

  • You should never loan money to family, expecting it back. You should either give, or not, depending on what you can afford, and what the need is. And then it’s between the recipient and God as to whether they use it properly. If she doubted it would be used for the intended purpose, she could have gone and paid the bills directly herself. But helping your grandfather with medical bills, when you can probably replace the money, is not necessarily the wrong thing to do. It’s probably the right thing to do. Even if your family is messed up. That’s the proper advice here. Now, should a family with multiple members not be in a position of asking their youngest to bail them out? Absolutely. So it is questionable. But there is no way to know all the details from a five minute call.
