I've mentioned from time to time
the dysfunction
(a masterpiece of understatement, that)
in my family.
It took a couple of days to get it across to #2 son
that I have contacted ONLY him.
ONLY his brother.
That's all I can or will handle right now.
They didn't steal an inheritance from him.
They didn't steal a house from him.
They didn't lie connive and undermine their successes for their own gain.
I'm not ready for that and may never be.
only him.
Only his brother.
