I Am Having Family Problems

Final Update:
My brother texted me to say that my parents were due to go to his on the day I said I would visit. I called my mum, I said I would be around at 12.30pm the taxi I order was booked for then. My Stepdad insisted that he had to leave at 1pm to be at my brothers house for 2pm. My husband (who is a driver by trade). Said that even driving at 30 miles per hour it would only take 30 minutes tops to reach my brothers house. We dropped off the present and cards we got them. Luckily they had stayed in to receive it.

In the card I tried to remind my mother that she has 5 children (yeah), I ain't the only one here. And put a collaboration of me and my sister together with mum together.

5 hours later my brother posts online a picture of his wife his mother in law and my mother sitting on a bench together near their home.

I was very angry, as I could see my mother was not impressed. She look positively miserable. Worst she is 83 years old and that day was not a day for sitting outside because it was a cold day. My sister in law might think it a warm day as would her mother as they originate from a country where Siberian weather is the norm. But not my mother. I felt sorry for her.

Since then she has not telephoned me.

On the social media page I had some comments. So I tried to tell the truth. Only technical glitch with my laptop it got sent several times to people. Now they think as my brother keeps insisting that I am mentally unstable.

But if I say to them. Ask him what exactly is my diagnosis and what medication I am supposed to he taking for this illness. They will then become hostile and try some other way of reasoning why they do not like me.

Not just simply saying we had an argument and we are getting back at her.

The Game Begins Part 3

My Aunt cried on my couch and said that the people she meant to be with and relied on had let her down. We explained to her we were happy to have her but it would be hard at first as we were renovating the house and her room. Which we were going to build on the ground floor would not be ready for another three months. She went back abroad to her family home she died about a year later.

Why games. My oldest sister got the lot all of the money and inheritance Land and houses. Not before accusing my cousins at the family home that they had been stealing from my Aunt.

The next brother down from me. Got a first class ticket to the family home courtesy of my mother. To attend the funeral. I said that my son should go. He said “why she lived with me and I should be getting something.” Needless to say. I know my Aunt left letters for us. She told me so when she was here. I did not expect any money in it. I wanted her last words so to speak. The letters went missing and were never delivered to any of us.

As for my mother, since then she keeps saying that she was annoyed with my Aunt as she should have asked her to take care of her affairs etc. And now she says she keeps seeing her all over the house. I laugh as I am thinking guilty conscience.

It is well to note at this stage. My Aunt was a stepmother to three girls who were my uncles before marriage. She left a will in which they got nothing.

That’s the gameplay and now with the advent of my Aunt’s death they are doing the same to our mother. So they are controlling who she sees who she speaks to and what they say to her. My Older sister to ensure she gets a ‘slice of the apple pie,’ My youngest brother because he wants to be able to pay off for the new house he’s brought. And my stepdad who wants control of it all because after all it’s the reason he married her was for the estate.

As for myself. As I explained to everyone on my blog page. I recently had a wakeup call and got a sell by date. That with the fact that I have accumulated two properties one which I purchased and paid off for myself and the other is my husbands. My son still thought it was better to be out of this world than in it. Has no interest in either premises and lives day to day as if it’s his last? It’s only recently he’s actually speaking as if he has a future.

So as you can see. I expect nothing. I never got the support in life and I sure as hell won’t get it in death. But strange though they are all trying to make me feel guilty because like my cousins abroad they expect me to do the looking after. My mum actually said she wanted me to go fetch for her and she would pay me. I took it as a joke and said. How ill am I mum I’m dying, and you want me to look after you!!!!!!

Enough said.
