[quote=Anonymous]OP, you seem to want everyone to have empathy for YOU and show sympathy for YOU. Your mindset is incredibly entitled. Did you thank the nearby relatives for all they did and endured when they tried to be helpful? What you call challenging behavior might have been downright abusive. If that is the case, it's no wonder they don't speak of him. You are fortunate they are gracious enough not to guilt trip you and resent you for not doing your part as the daughter. Living far away is no excuse. The pity party and me me me attitude is not going to serve you well and it needs to be worked on with a professional. Start focusing on helping others. As PP suggested, why don't you start helping a family member more and perhaps you should visit these aunts and uncles and do things for THEM.[/quote]
