My mother was aware of it and as I have recently had therapy for childhood abuse (not just sexual), I have brought it up with her and she told me to 'get over it'. Since then she has told me never to contact her again and has also told my siblings not to contact me as I have said hurtful things to her and am 'crazy''. I am now the family outcast and not one member of my massive family sent so much as a Christmas card let alone a present for my DCs.
My other siblings don't know what was done to me. The sibling who did it was much older than me but my mother's 'goldenchild' hence me getting blamed and being called 'filthy and evil'. I had accepted it was my shame until therapy and I realised just how much it has affected me.
I want my siblings to know what happened and my mother's part in it then maybe they will feel sorry me actually give a shit about me! I feel I am still being punished for this by being cast out. I worry that the sibling who abused me may suffer though if it comes out as they have had mental health issues in the past (as have I unsurprisingly ). I know my mother does not want anyone else to know and that is why I have been labelled 'crazy' and cut off.
