[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your mom may know or will find out on her own. What would be the point in telling her?[/quote] I feel sort of burdened by this info now. I doubt she even cares, but it just feels odd carrying this around. It would hurt her to tell her though. She’s always very hurt that none of them reach out to her. It’s a long story for a different thread. [/quote] Personally, I would tell her. And I would encourage her to use the opportunity to try to heal from the experience somehow. Maybe even have some sort of ceremony of sorts, where she acknowledges that she'll never get the reconciliation that she probably always secretly hoped for. She may need a good therapist to help heal the wounds. I'm estranged from people in my family and it would still be hard to hear about their passing, even though it's mutual choice to cut contact.[/quote]
