[quote=Anonymous]Op here -

I travel home 4 times a year to visit with my grandmother.  I call often and send photos and art work from my DDs.  My DDs also talk to her at least once a week.  Grandpa died 15 years ago and I know she is lonely so even though I live so far away, I know I interact the best I can.  My cousins often go months without stopping by - because, you know they work and have their own family....  blah blah, blah....

They are not "cleaning out the house."  They are taking what they want and leaving the cr@p.  My mother gets to empty the house as my aunt/uncle are leaving for several months in the south soon.  The china, silver, tv, hope chest, antique dolls from her childhood I remember playing with, jewelry, lamps, Hummels, jade figurines from my grandfather's overseas trip have all "been claimed."

SHe moved in assisted living about 4 weeks ago.  I made a special trip out last week with DD because I felt it would give her something to look forward to and think about as she was moved. 
 There is no sale date - but like pps have said, the vultures have come out.[/quote]
