I'm sorry Diana you had a hard moment with this. Situations like these can be sorta tough. Don't know what to say, just know that I'm thinking of ya. **hugs**

Family dealings can be so hard... and depressing.
I'm sorry it had to be that way for you. I think the others have given some good advice... so hopefully you can just spend some time with him by yourself.

Today's my brother's birthday and I told him Happy Birthday when I talked to him the other day. He lives a ways from me but I think that maybe I'll go down and do some Christmas shopping and take him out to eat.

Thanks for all of your suggestions. I had a hard time even thinking about it yesterday and would get all teary every time that he came to mind. It really helped to know that he had plans.

I'm glad you're feeling a bit better about this situation Diana. Sometimes holidays are just more stressful than they should be. *hugs*

Sounds like a good plan, Diana.

This last week, I've been hearing stories of families that have it hard - really hard - I think we are all so fortunate to have all the good that we have, no matter what has been difficult. We are all blessed with so many people who love and respect us.

Sometimes we can't fix things for a few of the ones we love, and we are all such wise women, it can be hard to let go. But good will come in its own time - Lord willing and the creek don't rise!

Diana,

I'm so sorry it's difficult with your brother. I think the others' ideas about getting together with him alone is a very good idea. I hope it works out. I think it would help you both a lot.
