What Goes Around Comes Around

I was driving three men today to pick up food and clothing at our warehouse.   Each had a mental illness, but one more severely.  It was he who answered the following question as indicated.  I asked, “Where do you want to take your food?”  He said: “I’m taking it to my mother’s house so she can have something to eat.  I am living in a group home now.”  I had worked with him and his mom numerous times in the past, and I could tell it was a real challenge for his mom to deal with him and his erratic behavior.  Now, she is relieved of the task of housing him, and he in turn is looking after his mom--a nice twist to the saying: “What goes around comes around.” -Br.
