Many years ago my dad died and left his estate to his girlfriend of about 18 months. There were many signs that he might have been affected in his decision by the brain tumour he had been suffering from.
Although we contested, the wicked stepmother as we have called her got almost everything.
My sister was allowed to collect her belongings from the house as she was 12 but I, as an adult (I was 18) was not allowed to collect my stuff. She argued it wasn't mine. Not sure what a balding man would have done with say my curling tongs but that is in the past.
The funeral was awful. We were largely ignored in the eulogy. Many, many hurtful things were done to us at a time when we were already grieving.
Anyway our darling mum did a great job and my dsis and I have turned out ok, have good jobs, loving relationships. We have had to work hard and earn absolutely everything.
Things have been extremely hard at points and it felt very unfair to see wicked step mum and her children (not related to my dad at all) benefit from his estate or sell his things that we would have treasured just to have something of his.
A friend found our childhood photos in a skip outside what had been our family home and managed to retrieve them. I would have like my dad's jumper. Nothing else expensive just something of his.
Anyway fast forward and it is has come out that step mum has had no joy out of the money. Her children have tried to fleece her of all the money.
It was in the papers that one chills had beaten his mum and stolen from her.
One daughter has an only fans page and sells herself on the internet.
The other has been in court for dealing drugs and possessing firearms.
Ah karma, you took a while but you crept up on them.
I feel nasty for getting some satisfaction from their misfortunes but they really did bring it all on themselves. Whereas my sibling and I were dealt shitty cards and made the most of it.
Has anyone got a good karma story?
