Where is Shawn ?

Annabellethecat66 — Sat, 02 May 2020 21:25:51 GMT

I was looking up something about Lori Goldstein and Shawn’s picture popped up.
It just occurred to me that I haven’t seen her in weeks!

I usually keep QVC on one of my TVs so I don’t know how I missed her!

Anyone know where she is? Is she OK. I miss seeing her.

I think she is staying home taking care of her parents. Her father has cancer.

I believe she is taking family medical leave as her father is ill and her mom is not well either. They are staying with Shawn and Joe.

@Annabellethecat66 @Shawn is such a great daughter...taking care of both of her parents who have health problems in her home.That says a lot about her love.

I don't know what kind of daughter Shawn is but it's nice that she's taking care of her sick parents.

Perfect sentence - don't know what it means - sounds rude.

Thank you ladies for letting me know why I haven't seen her.

As with all you, I hope her parents get better soon.

plenty of daughters would not do this or cant do this......there are other options that other "daughters" choose for many reasons.

She is on a leave. Her parents are with her and they have frail health.

The Family Medical Leave Act is a law and everyone is entitled to it.

I think this shows she is a caring daughter- I know plenty of people who don't care about Others, even their parents (only themselves) and won't help, unless they somehow benefit from it personally- One of them is my sister. I call them 'hand-washers'... because they wash their hands of any responsibility.

That is wonderful that Shawn is caring for her parents. It's unfortunate but true that many times family members don't step up to the plate when it comes to caring for ailing parents. I know a few people who have confided in me about situations where a parent was sick and how everything involving the care of the parent fell on one or two family members, others - as someone mentioned here - "washed their hands" of any responsibility. This is sad to me. And the fact that Shawn has BOTH parents not well is even more overwhelming. My thoughts are with all of them...and in the midst of a pandemic...a lot to deal with!

What an awful time to post dislike of Shawn. Like her or not she is going through a horrible experience. May God be with her and her family.

As others have said, you’d be surprised how many daughters (and sons) wouldn’t help their sick parents the way Shawn is doing. Also, you’d be surprised how many SIL’s and DIL’s wouldn’t help their spouses parents, or let them live with them, as Joe is doing. It’s very good of both of them to do this.
