Just found out today my Nan died year ago today, none of my family bothered to tell me?

I have been estranged from them since 2020 due to Informing my aunt and uncles about my mum abuse towards me.

It was my mum mum who died!
Found out all the other family got. share of 2.4 million pounds! If my grandad was here today I would of got some of that,
I tried and tried to maintain contact and meet face to face once I spilt my secret!

And I tried many times to contact my aunt uncles to meet up and discuss this. Eventually they all blocked me!

In 2020 I was in contact with my Nan before the I contacted everyone regarding my mum abuse, I feel to this day - don’t believe a word of anything I say! My dad hasn’t had much contact due to them cutting contact with him as well! He is very angry principal of just being told and invited to the funeral would of course be wanted and needed for myself and my brother, who are devastated about losing their Nan!

My Nan 2 years after we told them
About my mum, basically changed the will,
Because we hadn’t been In contact for many years and doesn’t know if we married or had any children, that same year I was over my nans in the spring, so this is total BS, for me this was pushed to happen by one of my aunts or uncles.

In 2021 I sent letters to all family members on my mums side and they all ignored me!
So they was contact and birthday and Christmas cards, they knew where my dad lived and l both his numbers yet no contact.
When my mum died we invited lots of folks who hadn’t seen her for 5-10 years
Why couldn’t my family just allowed me to come to funeral and say goodbye??

How would you feel about this??
AIBU to to want to of been invited to a funeral of a family member at one stage I was really close to would see every Sunday!

I don’t understand how you were no contact due to your mums abuse of you, but then you say…
When my mum died we invited lots of folks who hadn’t seen her for 5-10 years

In fact I can’t make head nor tail of your whole post.

It does come across your more upset about not being included in the money

Why is the money relevant?

The money is always relevant Wink

I'm sorry for your loss but if you are estranged from your family then no, I wouldn't expect them to tell you anything.

A lot of your post is very difficult to understand but rightly or wrongly, it seems that your mum's parents and siblings took her side regarding whetever went on and decided that they wanted nothing to do with you.
