[quote=Anonymous]I dunno. I'm a bit more on the fence about this than everybody else. If you guys live 800-2500 miles away, then are you maybe not as close -- not just physically but emotionally, too -- to your grandmother these days? Are your cousins and uncle doing things for her that you guys aren't? When people age, they often do need help, and it's the people who are actually living near them who are able to give that help, not the ones who live across the country. Your parents, who also live nearby, may see this happening and this may be why they don't stand up for protecting your interests in your grandma's things. You just might not be as close to her as your cousins are. On the other hand, I will say that I feel your pain. When my grandmother died, my mother said she watched her sisters descend upon her mother's things like vultures and she never felt the same way about them again. It was just such ugly behavior. So I'm sorry you're seeing this, too.[/quote]
