Greg: Brother Story

[Guest guest]

Greg,

Your response and story about my issues reminding you of

similarities with your brother and family was touching. As I keep

saying, it intrigues me to hear such similarities.

I find it so sick how nada lied, manipulated, and just caused such

damage via abuse, drugs, emotions, etc. The one place in my heart

that hurts the most is the loss of my brother to cancer. I hate to

say this, but I blame nada for him getting cancer, and so did he. I

just cannot come to terms with what nada and my father did to him.

Things like making him choke by shoving food so far down his throat,

so my father would think he was puking his food and beat him to

simply calling him worthless, and selfish to think that anyone else

wanted him. They would tell him things like " we were the only ones

that felt sorry enough for you, and this is the way you thank us. "

HELLLOOOOOO! He didn't ask for them!!! When he left at 16 to go

live with his uncle (an alcoholic) he was diagnosed with cancer

three months later and didn't have the money for chemotherapy, so he

sued my parents for child support, and lost because my parents filed

bankrupcy. They cleared 200 thousand a year, hid there money, and

filed bankrupcy. I sold everything I had: clothes, jewelery,

heirlooms, anything to raise money for him to get the medical

attention necessary. Then I was the two faced back stabbing

daughter, according to nada. I remember holding him as a baby and

hugging him so tight, telling him all would be okay...as a baby, and

then through his chemo., it all played back. Ughh, gotta stop,

can't hold back the tears right now. But I thank you and the many

others who have opened a huge door for me, and I can't thank you

enough for being there, so supportive, and listening.
