We no longer speak to my sister-in-law, we refer to her as the Evil One, and the moniker is well earned. I always tell people, if you don't have lawyers involved, things aren't that bad, that's how things ended within the family when my Mother-in-law passed away. Money does awful things to people.
On my side, I have not spoken or seen my father in 25 plus years, I have no clue if he is alive or dead. It is a long, sad story.
I agree. Money does awful things to people.
Two sisters - one an active addict and the other who has been hateful her entire life. When our mother was dying, it was horrifying to see what they were capable of. When our mother was in the hospital, I was told to immediately file for guardianship by the hospital, since the staff was worried that my sisters were a danger to my mom. I was already mom's POA, so we ended up in court briefly, and I was granted guardianship. Their "testimony" in court was so bizarre and evil, that once my mom died (thank God she never realized what had happened), we haven't spoken since.
It's much easier to love some people from a distance, and forgive them so you can have peace IF you don't have to be around them. I feel as if my sisters are dead, and that's better for me and my family. Best wishes to you. I know it's hard.
