I've just posted about my dad passing away last week and probably should have included this, but I only just thought of it so I'm doing a separate one. Sorry!!
My dad left us last week after ten months battling a brain tumour.
I am his only biological child. I have grown up in a five person family with my mum, brother and sister, who are about a decade older than me. They are my mum's children but lived with my mum and my dad since I was born, spent Christmas with the family every year, my dad helped with their house deposits, he considered their children his grandchildren etc etc.
They have continually ignored me since my father was diagnosed and I don't know how to deal. I know he wouldn't want me to break up the family. But they frequently come to my home town, meet up with each other and don't invite me. I know it sounds pathetic. But I feel like my dad was my link to my family. Now he's not here, I'm not part of the family anymore.
Since my dad passed last week, I've had one message from my sister and nothing at all from my brother. Nothing at all. I am fuming.
When my dad told us his diagnosis was terminal, I was crying and had to go to the toilet. They left together while I was in the loo. No word, no tissue, no contact.
I'm so angry and don't know what to do. Anyone experiencing something like this?? ?
