[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: If I met my brother as an adult, of course I would hesitate to get involved. But it is family. I thought that he would get a job and move on—that it would be a short period. Instead it has been 3 YEARS, really 5 years since Dad got sick. Now that I can think clearly, having processed my dad’s death and brother’s relationship to dad’s money – he had access, obviously he took a big slice for himself. How else to live for 3 years without working and still have the benefits of middle class life? He does not have a pension/ savings etc. Now the money has run out. (There were several asides/ oblique references to this that I did not understand while dealing with my grief and my DHs decline) It has been a busy 3 years for us, dealing with the financial aspects of a forced retirement.
Every conversations is about how poor he is and how Dad should have left him more. As for the wife – she thought that she married rich – and considering her poverty and no green card, she did. Now she has it, has half of his assets, she and her four kids are exploring other options.  Since her teenage DD is now pregnant, citizenship problems are considerably relieved for her family.

How do you figure DD's pregnancy changes their immigration situation one iota [/quote]
