Hey guys, i need prayers and advice

My grandmother, who is my closest relative has been abit sick lately. She lives with two of my uncles. One of whom is very concerned, and when he doesn't know where she is he panics. But its not just him thats concerned, some of my aunties call my mum when they cant get into contact with her or my other uncle. Everytime i hear the phone ring, i dread to hear who answers it, because i always think it'll be bad news. The second uncle the other day went to the hopsital with her, so he could pick up his results for a heart test. He left his phone in his car and you could guess what happened. We got a call from a concerned relative. And to make things worse, they've lately been getting unwanted calls. You know, those when as soon as you answer they hang up, and stupid telemarkets. What should i do? It all frustrates me so much /forum/images/graemlins/mad.gif

G'day Cobber.This sounds like a time when the whole family should pull together. Maybe someone should be like a person to keep in touch with everyone. Just to touch bases on a daily basis. And as for the telemarketers. Just tell them that they are idiots for ringing. Belittle them. They do slow down over time. /forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I agree.

As for the telemarketers, do you live in the states? There is a national "do not call" list that you can sign up for which makes it against the law for telemarketers to call that number.

Thanks guys for the advice. Jb, i dont live in the states, i live in Aus. Unfortunately for us, and im not being racist, but stupid people in India are calling. Our companies hire them because its cheaper, train them to talk like they live in Aus, and try to sell crap to us while they are in India. Its just terrible.
