It matters when the guy gets sick and is in the hospital. If the docs start chasing after elves, or trying to keep the guy in a more-or-less living state until Groundhog Day, well, yea, it matters.

It matters when this woman gets duped by a so-called "psychic" who says, in effect, "Pay me a lot of money even though you can't afford it and are living on cat food. For a substantial fee I can help you come to terms with the fact that your relative died."
