Sent my monthly small sum to my mom, to use for my disabled aunt. She's struggled since my grandmother passed away, as she has no one to help fill in "the gaps". She works as a dishwasher, but her employer doesn't provide full time opportunities, or benefits. Sometimes my mom uses the money to buy her a new pair of work pants, buy her groceries, cover her health care bill, or just take her to lunch at an inexpensive place.
