My dad went to hospital last Monday (Nov. 25) with what we thought was a chest infection but turned out to be cancer. A week later, he passed away. I'm broken. He was my best friend and the only person in my home who would actually take time to talk to me about my personal issues. He's all I had.

This evening my mum and sister were sorting through his stuff and something came up. A little backstory is that when I was 4 (2004) my mum and dad were having an argument as per, and my mum threw a hairdryer at his head and in self-defense he hit her. We've heard this story a lot over the years, it always being the same from both of them; mum hurt dad, dad hurt her back. Tonight however, my mum and half-sister (dads step-daughter) started adding to it. Saying that the hairdryer didn't even hit my dad (it did, I saw the blood.) Saying that dad beat her up (he didn't, he hit her once.) Saying that he went for my sister (he didn't, she was with me when all of this happened.) As well as this, they've been saying things about the way my Grandma is grieving and are being downright rude about a woman who just lost her only son.

The point of this post is, i'm struggling enough to process his death, but with everything my mum and sister are saying, it's making it all harder. I've never overly gotten along with either of them, and I feel like my sister especially is doing this on purpose.

It physically pains me to hear them being so horribly about my dad. Being so horrible about my grandma. I don't know what to do.
