    If I were gravely ill, I would probably put myself first.

    When you're down to the last brownie.  (screw family, IT'S MINE!)

    When what one needs to do serves the larger community, possibly including one's own family.
    For instance, the volunteers in the Australian 2020 Black Summer Fires.

    P.S. My huge gratitude to the Americans and Canadians who came over to help,
    and my deep sorrow that three of you lost your lives in helping us. 
    I cried. I was so touched by your generosity.
