Another neighbor told me she fell walking the dog and sustained a
concussion and still has head@ches

There is definitely something broken there, 

I don’t mind that the weather worries her, i just don’t need a picture of
every branch flooding my inbox

Yes, if she doesn’t die, she will fall and end up in a nursing home and or
sustain a very serious stroke

The day after she came back from doctor she spent time trying to convince
me she has walking pneumonia
THE DAY AFTER SHE SAW THE DR WHO PRONOUNCED HER LUNGS CLEAR

She is such a serious attention seeker
She has a cough related to post nasal drip
