Dear Sherry,
I hate this for you! Let me tell you a little about my own family dynamics, it might help?
Just after my stage 2 diagnosis I called my eldest brother to ask him to please make sure he took good care of my Mom(who was just diagnosed as being end stage w BC) (as he lived close to her Nursing home). We'd not been friendly for many years as I married out of my faith...anyway...his response was..."This is all your fault,Mom is dying because of you making her go to her sisters funeral ..yada,yada" (this from a man that screamed like an animal at his very sick frail mother)...I hung up on him and was devastated. Fast forward two years and he is diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer. He moves in with another brother 4 hours from where I live and I go see him. I just told him "I love you,always did...you did some horrible things to me and my family...but I forgive you, lets move on from here and not waste any more precious time". I saw him one more time and he passed away the day after we spent that night recalling better days.
Bottom line is that some people are so troubled that they are TOXIC to everyone around them. Protect yourself from the pain she causes you Sherry. I wish that your brother could spend his final months in a loving environment and not surrounded by such venom and negativity. Please know that I care...keep posting.
You will NOT got to h*ll for defending yourself....
