No it's not.
I had a good friend that once we both graduated from college and moved from the Lou, we lost contact. Then one day she called me to update me on her "life." She said she was married and had four kids. During the conversation she would sometimes interrupt it and say something to the kids or her husband. However, I never heard their voices in the background.
Then a couple of years later, she called me to say she had lost her husband and kids in a house fire--she was the only one who survived. I asked my mother about is (she was friends with this soror's mother) and she said the mother never mentioned that to her.
Then a few years later she called to say she had had a brain tumor, but the surgery had cured her.
Her last call--about ten years ago--was that she was living in FL with her new husband who was an Arab and filthy rich, but he was cheating on her and she was so hurt.
She was in real estate and a soror I knew worked with her. I finally asked her about all of this and she told me none of it was true.
So I learned that there are people out there who have a great need for sympathetic attention.
