I'm a counselor

"Yes, I don't need a referral but I need someone to answer a question about ethics."

"If you'll explain the situation I'll do what I can."

"Well you see, my mother passed away last week and I'm going to her will reading tomorrow. Before she passed she gave me five thousand dollars to work on a special project, but when she passed I used that money to pay for the funeral. I was so thankful to have that money becuase we just got the payment over and done with, but now I'm afraid that I'm being petty to ask the attorney to be reimbursed from her estate for the expenses. Do you think thats wrong of me to do? My daughter says I'm being petty but it was for a special project of mine and I would really like to have that money back if I can."

".....wellll, ma'am, in my uh, personal opinion...."

This is getting ridiculous.
