[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 385177, member: 1233"] Thanks everyone. I know it hurts her horribly. husband cannot understand it, but Iunderstand that too. His family is NOT close in the way mine is. They don't get upset if they don't see each other for a holiday. For them it is not a big deal. His dad is perfectly fine with whomever shows up for the holiday and if you cannot go there is no big guilt trip. My family is TOTALLY the opposite. So I understand why my mom is upset. She is going to push for Jessie to "come to terms" with gfgbro because "this town is too small" to avoid him and "it isn't healthy". For this she is going to hit a rock wall unless the therapist and neuropsychologist say otherwise. Jessie is adamantly against anything that will have her anywhere NEAR gfgbro and I don't blame her a bit. It is because I understand her pain over this that I will not create a scene or fuss in her home. It is all I can do at this time, and more than I really want to do. She does understand some of how I feel - a couple of years ago gfgbro came to me to have me help him get her declared incompetent because she just wandered away while he was talking to her. He would go into a rant and she just left the room and usually went to bed. It was pretty funny at the time. The sad part is that he never lets husband, me, or my kids walk away from him. I dread whatever the results of her "addressing" this with gfgbro is. Only time can tell the results of it, but I am sure my bitter vindictive nature will be the core of the problem. Or so I will be told. I never wanted any part of any drama remotely resembling this, and would be eternally thankful if all of this stupid **** would just go away and never happen again. [/QUOTE]
