My dad died Thursday in his office in Houston. We three kids in Austin had to leave work to run there to stop the buzzarding about his estate occuring within an hour of his death.
My mom and sister schemed to grab 75% of his estate while my brother, me and said sister were driving down frantically to stop the looting.
Long story short, I’ve had to divorce my entire family including my daughter over this. The buzzards went on full offense, facebook war and I most assuredly am spending Christmas alone with God after this. He and my brother are the only people I want to see, outside of work family.
A most difficult situation for you and your brother... my best for a fair outcome for all...
Dude, that’s terrible.
Spent the evening with my 90 year old mom
at assisted living. She’s doing pretty well
and Christmas went pretty smoothly for our family.
Sorry to hear of your troubles, hope the new Year
brings you better fortune.

Just. Damn.
I am so sorry.
Almost all of my Kentucky connection is gone after the divorce. I know what that’s like...
I’m so sorry about your dad. It is amazing how people act after a death. Was there any planning ahead of time? My husband’s brother ended up with everything. Long story I won’t get into, but it had to do with gossip beforehand. I am not spending my days fighting people over money. Vengeance is God’s.
All that AND you have to still grieve the loss of your father. I’m a delayed griever. I can’t fall apart while everyone is watching.
Oh dear txhurl....what a mess!
So sorry about your dad though....the worst and best come out of people when the head hanchos depart this earth....some become scavengers, others thiefs and some don’t care one way or another.
My sister pretty much cleared out my moms...what she didn’t know was mom knew and already took care for me before she left!..and she still doesn’t know to this day. My sis is a control freak!
May the Lord work this out perfectly for you....
Merry Christmas txurl!

How I feel you. My parents are alive and “well” but suffer from Alzheimer’s and I’m having some serious trust issues with someone in my family who may be lying to me, there is strong evidence, which means also I may be being cheated as well. This has been the worst year of my life bar none because I’d always heard what other families can come to over money but never ever thought it would happen to mine. Devastating.
My sympathies for your loss but even worse for the loss of decency around you. Yes, yes, this is worse than losing the loved one. If they were good, they’ve gone to their reward, but to see the ugliness and unfairness we are left with...
So sorry for the loss of your dad, and the disappointing behavior of your relatives. Compounds the hurt, I know. God bless you and keep you.
Sorry to hear - went through pretty much the same thing earlier this year. Hang in there...
