Love With Limits

Lawrence Yancey gave me a supplementary card with a spending limit of 300 dollars, and any excess required his approval with a receipt.

He said this was to ensure transparency in the management of the family's finances.

I did as he asked for three years.

At last month's medical checkup, I was diagnosed with thyroid nodules, and the doctor recommended that I undergo a needle biopsy.

I took a picture of the bill and sent it to him.

“7,200 dollars?!” He replied in an instant. “It’s just a nodule. Can’t you just monitor the situation first?”
