Hi Ima, |

As a receiver of "Bituach Leumi" (National
Insurance) for old
people,
which is right now a little more than 2000 NIS (about
400$) and my only income -
I have no right to a credit-card.
Unless one of my children would "lend" his/ her credit-card,
I wouldn't be able to take advantage of the Dental Clinic's proposal,
to pay for the rehabiliation program of my mouth in 36 payments,
i.e. 709 NIS per month - after an immediate payment of 3500 NIS.
Though I calculated that I could pay the 709 NIS per month myself
(for, as my children knew, I am fantastic in managing with scarcety),
I had to share with them the program
in order to win over one of them to let me use his/ her credit-card.
But as the e-mail from my youngest won quoted above shows,
they did not agree to what - in the following sharing - was my "final"
word
of wanting to pay myself for myself,
and "superimposed" their own final word!
Each of them would pay 237 NIS per month for 3 years.
And of course, I'm deeply grateful.
[translation of the passage
above:]
"Please listen to me:
I want and am able to pay the payments ALONE during all the three years.
After the deduction of the rent for my flat of 1050 NIS
(a sum which includes the payments for water, electricity, Internet, cable-TV),
I can manage.
Only if I might need something special or unexpected, would I need to ask
help from you.
Don't try to change my mind in this matter.
It is enough for me and you, that you would catch me if I would fall."
