My brother and I have finally made peace with one another. Told each other that we are letting by gones be by gones. Made me really happy that after all the years of not getting along that we can now start fresh.

Only bad thing that came out of the meeting today was that I have found out that my aunt's children have all been coming over to see my mom only to get money out of her. Brother told me one of my cousins must have had a case of feeling bad about the whole deal because he approached my brother in his back yard telling my brother what he was up to. Showed my brother the check my mom gave him, brother thought it was for $300 but, it turned out it was for $3,000. Well my brother just about blew a gasket on that one.

Always knew my cousins were money grubbers but, now all of them have about cleaned out my mom's bank account. Sister did not help out either. Brother gave her a $10,000 savings bond, sister only took 2 weeks to gamble and party that away. Two weeks later she came to my brother asking for $200 and he gave it to her.

Told my brother to get mom's check book from her, which he did. Makes me mad that my cousins along with my aunt have taken advantage of my mom in such a way. What a bunch of scum! Kinda my brothers fault in a way since he is in legal control of mom's things, he should have put a stop to this a long time ago. Only money in the end.

Cousins don't have anything so its no use getting a lawyer involved at this point. Think my brother is just keeping his temper in check till my mom has passed away. I would not want to be my cousins at that point, brother put the "V" in violent if you get my meaning.

It is only money and we will never see any of it in the end but, to have my aunt and cousins take advantage of my mother just because she is not in the right frame of mind due to pain killers and lack of oxygen gives them no right to swindle mom out of money. Its just the principle of thing. Could have been a herd of goats they were after and I would still feel the same way.

If there is anything lower than this I would sure like to know what it is. WHAT A BUNCH OF LEACHES !!!!!!!!!!

Yea..this thing I think happens a lot. Very sad. But hopefully the end result is that you and your brother can get back together again. Might be G0D's plan.
 
Good to hear, Rob. Al is correct. People can be real jerks to those they should love. Even in my close knit family, I had two sisters argue over who got a non-working mantle clock. They were the best of friends and stopped talking for two months. I finally called the one I was closest two and asked her if it was worth it. She tried to argue principle, but finally acknowledged it was not. I think the stupid clock is in someone's basement now. Relationships should be much more important than stuff.

I'm glad to hear it Man !!! As far as your cousins are concerned, their still people and people are mostly out for themselves; granted their are a few exceptions.
 
i am glad you and you're brother worked things out. if youre mom had passed on while you two were still feuding, things may never have gotten worked out.
