Friends of MS...Not So Friendly

Whatever happened to that "Do Not Call Registry?" Apparently the Friends of MS (Multiple Sclerosis) did not get a copy. They call our house daily, sometimes multiple (sclerosis) times.

Do they know that Craig and I both have sisters that have been diagnosed with MS? Does that put us on a special "Call Frequently Registry?"

Several years ago I actually answered the call and agreed to go through my clothes and donate the ones I don't wear. I was supposed to place them on the front porch on a certain day and they would come get them. Well, I kinda forgot. My goodness...the angry calls that followed.

I'm not exactly sure how my old too-tight jeans will cure MS. Perhaps Craig and I will go through our closets and give all our ill-fitting clothing directly to our sisters. Seems to make perfect sense to me.

Meanwhile I will keep a vigilant eye on the Caller ID and not answer any calls from the "Friends."

In fact, the phone is ringing right now. Blasted! "Pals of Prostate Cancer."
