Love how it’s family members who tithe hundreds of dollars a month to the church and share those script quotes about family and loving and community that never offer to spot a five when they see me literally begging for money. But they’ll pray for me when I’m having a rough one.

a dark wooden table against a white(?) wall with various household and medical supplies neatly arranged on top.

items include a box of disposable gloves, a black KN95 face mask resting on top, bottles of medication and supplements, two small cartons of very high calorie Boost nutritional drink, a COVID-19 antigen home test kit, a large white container of Soylent, and several other medicine bottles and ointments.

there are also packs of wipes, a zebra-patterned bear, a folded green mat, a reacher-grabber tool, a white plastic bag over a bedpan, and a tray containing numerous small packets.

the floor beneath the table is dark wood, and the room lighting is warm and yellow-toned.
