Hello @Sacha49,
I’m so sorry for the loss of your mum. Thank you for sharing this with us. I’m just giving your thread a gentle, “bump” for you - hopefully someone will have some thoughts to share.
Take good care,
Alex
Yes I had a tricky time with my brother when my parents died long ago. Very many issues over the years.
It’s not our fault I have been really close to my brother but since our mum passed away he turned nasty against all of us like his two close nieces and myself I just don’t know where it’s come from I don’t like him anymore and it hurts
Yes my brother has been different. In time send a letter maybe and all might be forgotten
