Hi guys- I know I'm not on very much but I wanted to get as many opinions as possible so I can make a wise decison. Really needing that godly wisdom right now. My grandfather is very sick and according to my dad will probably not be here much longer. He's asking me to come to my aunt's house tomorrow night to spend time with everyone. There will be family I haven't seen in many years (because I had quickie wedding in Tahoe-doh!) The problem is that none of them are saved and they drink like fish. I've never felt comfortable around them, especially now since they don't really know me anymore. I know I should see grandpa soon but I'm just not into seeing the whole family. I really don't know what to do.
The other thing is that whenever I try to call my grandparents I always get the answering machine and they never call back. I've left my phone number several times but for whatever reason, I never hear from them. My own father never bothered to call me on my birthday. The whole thing is just kind of awkward for me.
My husband says that since he will be on a men's retreat this weekend, I should wait until he gets home and we'll go together. He doesn't think it's safe for me to go by myself. At least if I get picked on my christianity he's there to defend me. So how would you handle this? Would you stay or would you go?
