Ok girls - here's one for the AIBU page, however I don't want to post on there as I've heard bad things, some of you may recall that my little brother had made a shock announcement that he has been diagnosed with multiple myeloma cancer, he then gathered all the family together (after weeks of appointments and medication and further hospital trips to specialists) to inform us all that he had 6 months left to live. I spoke to my mum regarding her will and requested that his share of the inheritance be passed to him now so that he could enjoy his last few months, we were meant to marry alone on a beach abroad and decided to bring the service forward and do it here (in a time frame of 8 weeks) so he could give me away.
My brother then sat to charities, mountain climbs etc to raise funds and awarness - I was so proud that I nominated him for the pride of Britian awards and my step brother wanted our local paper to do a piece on him.
After a falling out between my brother and another step brother he was accused of lying about his condition, the family was up in arms as you can imagine (the brothers shared a house at the time) the step brother went through my brothers belongings, medication etc - this caused further altercations between my mother and step father. Apparently my step brother knew someone at the hospital and said person had informed him that my brother wasn't on the system
Following this my little brother went AWOL for days, my mother finally contacted him and took him to his GP - my brother produced a letter stating his condition from the surgery (my mum never spoke to him) and it transpired that it all had been a lie ;,( we had all taken time off work, my mum had remortgaged the house for funeral costs and his inheritance etc we had gotten into debt over our impending vows etc, my mum became incredibly ill and collapsed
My mum then took him in, he was arrested as my step brother contacted everyone he knew to tell them the truth/ turned on his father and my mother (he said vile things to them both) and he reported him to the police. We have not spoken since, even when I visit the sight of him makes my blood boil and I hate him being anywhere near my children
He is in court tomorrow and will be sentenced to a custodial sentence. It's only today that he has seen fit to contact me to apologise. I haven't replied to the spineless text. Soooo al I being unreasonable?
