The stress begins

My brother was just diagnosed with stage 3, 4 throat cancer. My sister took a bus down to be with him when he goes to oncologist. My sister hasn't drank in a year but I know when she gets with my brother, she will get plastered.
He lives in a hotel. He works 60 hours. They have no food there and no vehicle. I am sure he finds enough money to buy beer. I have a little left in my account but I do not get paid in 2 weeks. I hate the fact that they have no food. I was thinking of going to the dollar store and buying some canned goods to help them out but my logic says he can figure a way himself. I am torn. This is always the case with my dysfunctional family. I have always helped. My family has always been a HUGE source of my anxiety. They are selfish and toxic. I want to be there for my brother but the drama of my family dynamics is going to be a huge trigger for me. My sponsor is out of town so I cannot talk to her. I am just a bit stressed and needed to vent. Thanks much
