I'm having a well-deserved drink...

[quikdraw67]

My sincere condolences on your loss.

My Mom passed after a long decline from dementia in December. Terrible disease.

Thank God my siblings and I were all on the same page regarding her care.

There was a burial reserve for her, everything else was used in her assisted living care before she had to go into the nursing home.

I would strongly suggest that everyone has a burial reserve account. The state can't touch it. It came in handy when the time came.

Enjoy your bourbon, you deserve it.

Sorry for your loss..Life is not easy as we all know. I for one have lost both my parents and a wife. I find comfort in my religious beliefs which are my own. I have friends who are understanding. I also learned early on that my sibling handles grief differently so I have never expected her to be like or think like me..

Please accept my condolences and a prayer for your peace, comfort, and strength for your family.

sorry for your loss! my mom went in a similar way, similar actions from my sister.... time will help, so will forgiveness......not long after mom was gone, I kicked pre-planning and estate planning into high gear

My condolences. Ben Franklin said a good way to measure a man's character was to share an inheritance with him.

Sorry for your loss.

Be glad you're not one of my B-in-Ls, one of whom is sitting in jail with no bail for trying to kill the other. Things could be a whole lot worse than not speaking to each other.

Now enjoy that drink.

prayers for you and your brother as you go through this.. loss of a parent is tough.. enjoy your sip of Maker's understanding it doesn't really help solve problems but does give you a pause to start a new... siblings can be a blessing and a curse and I have seen them almost come to blows over grandma's salt & pepper shakers... if anything is left someone will "deserve" it or "it was promised".. it is all just things and stuff... we all have too much stuff already.. the only truly important part of life is the relationships we have.. love & be loved.. forgive and most importantly forget.. easier said than done I know.. so again, sorry for your loss

Sorry for Your loss. My Mom was in the same condition when She passed. My Brother was just like Yours. After Dad died He took advantage of Mom financially while I was the one to help Her. When I called My Brother to tell Him She died all He said was " oops. How much money do I get?" A month after He got less than He wanted He called Me wanting to borrow from Me. And this was after His threat to sue the estate, Just do what I did and excommunicate Him. I felt better right away and left the booze alone.

Sorry about your loss and gain of a ‘situation’. I had my experience with my brother after Mom&Dad passed.
Nothing nasty, just drifted apart. We were close as rugrats but went in different directions from high school on.
I think things can be different with siblings after the parents are gone. Some become closer and others not simply because the family glue is gone and there’s no one to answer to and some figure “ Hey, we’re family, all will be forgiven”
That all depends on what things have transpired.
I hope things work out for you and don’t dig too deep in that bottle for an answer.
Sometimes it’s prescribed.

Sincere condolences on such a hard loss.

I, and my family, will pray that you can eventually close the gap between you and your brother.

I too am sorry to hear of your loss. I hope you and your brother find peace. Drink all you want just don't drive. Take care and be well. I'm sure all here feel for you and it is OK to vent here among your friends..........

I'm sorry to hear about your mother's death. As to your brother, we all deal with death differently. Perhaps he is wrestling with some personal demons over your mother's passing.
