My selfish sister.
My mom lived alone in an apartment with her cat, and couldn't do much on her own because of medical issues. I drove 45 minutes every other day to go to her apt, take out her garbage, pick up her apt and even went to the grocery store for during Covid because she was scared to leave the house. I made sure her medication was organized and that she was taking it. After a while, it got so bad that her landlord said she couldn't live there anymore. Me and my daughter helped her move out. She moved in with me. While she was living with me, I took her to all her doctors appointments, and there were multiple because she had different doctors for her specific medical issues. Many of her appointments were 45 minutes away due to the specialists she had to see. I took her to every appointment. I took her to the store, to the farmers market, everywhere she wanted to go. I paid the huge cable bill so she could watch her shows, I took her to the store and made sure she was buying only what she was allowed to eat as she had dietary restrictions. I even took time off work 3 different times so she could get specialized treatment, made sure she took her meds. I did this for almost 5 years. My sister lives only 10 minutes away from me and never offered to help and never bothered to help. I had a planned vacation that I couldn't get my money back and my mom was really sick. My sister wouldn't come over to take care of her and wouldn't let her stay at her house for a week. I had to call my daughter who lives an hour away and she had to call into work. she ended up sending my mom to the hospital. While I was on vacation overseas, I was on the phone every day with the doctors getting updates on my mom. My sister never talked to them once. When my mom ended up in the hospital, I was there every day even after working the night shift. My sister never showed up once until my mom was on her death bed. My sister NEVER took her to a doctors appointment, she never took her to the grocery store, never took her anywhere. My sister barely spoke to my mom because my sister was mad that we showed up late to my niece's wedding a few years earlier. My niece never had an issue with it, but my sister did. After my mom ended up in the hospital, my sister never showed up to visit and only showed up after my mom had been put on life support. My sister didn't come to the hospital when my mom was having surgery to get a pace maker put in, she never showed up at all. She did nothing for her. It was all me and my daughter who is a nurse. After my mom died in the hospital, my sister decided that SHE was in charge and made all the plans for my mom's memorial service. Since my mom donated her body to science, there was no funeral. The ONLY thing my sister did was contact the place to pick up my mom's body from the hospital. My sister (along with my daughter) made all the plans for the memorial service. My daughter was the beneficiary on my mom's bank account because she was her power of attorney. I was fine with that because my daughter is a nurse and handled most of her medical issues by talking to the doctor's because she understands medical terminology. But I was the one who took care of her, paid all the bills and took her everywhere. My sister decided that she deserved some of my mom's money and talked my daughter into giving it to her, while I got NOTHING. My sister even refused to give me a copy of my mom's death certificate and when I asked she said "you can get one from the courthouse for $20." She has never offered to help me go through my mom's things. I was the one who made all the phone calls to her social security, her pension place, the doctors, her Life Alert and all the places that needed to be contacted. My sister didn't pick up the phone once. I asked my daughter to let me know when she was planning the memorial service and she told me my sister had already taken care of it. I wasn't even informed about the memorial service until a few days before it took place. I haven't spoken to my sister since. I still haven't gotten a copy of my mom's death certificate because I don't feel like I should spend $20 when she can give me a copy for free. I ever take care of my mom's cat. I buy his food, pay for his vet bills and my sister acted she was the one who did everything for my mom, when she did absolutely nothing. After my daughter got my mom's money out of the bank, she paid for all the medical bills and other bills my mom had, there was money left over and I didn't get one penny of it. My daughter got her share and my sister get what was left. We never found a will, but she told my mom that I would get some money when she died because I did everything for her. But I got nothing because my selfish sister thought she was entitled to everything.
