Always Wearing Makeup
Gail’s mother was very meticulous about her makeup. She would wear a light foundation to bed every night. Initially, Gail thought it was very strange. She asked her why she was always wearing makeup, even during the night, and her mother said, “Well, Gail, you never know when you are going to get sick. What if, in the middle of the night, the ambulance would come? You always want to look your best, because you would get treated better at the hospital.” But what she discovered next about her mother was even more inexplicable.
