[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I do not believe her family was abusive to her. Just lots of bickering and jealousy growing up. Then, when grandma was dying of cancer (stage 4, incurable), my mom called in hospice when the other siblings thought grandma should get treatment and be in a hospital. Grandma made that decision, but they wanted my mom to overrule her. I think my mom felt like they blamed her for her death (but I don't know that for certain). Then bickering over inherited property. She really wanted their wedding ring, but her sibling took it and refused to give it. It wasn't listed in the will and likely wasn't worth a ton. It's all petty stuff in my mind, but I know that it adds up over time.

She knows when we travel because she lives nearby, we talk often, and she has a sibling that she does talk to who would tell her.

I actually don't engage with my mom about it. I just really miss the way things used to be though. [/quote]
Her siblings punished her for honoring their mother’s wishes regarding her treatment of terminal cancer? Bless your mom that she didn’t force your grandmother to prolong her suffering and go through unnecessary treatments. That definitely changes things for me. You don’t need to end relationships but you should be more understanding of your mom.[/quote]
