I agree, your nada's stance was very neutral and detached, as though you are an

acquaintance. It does feel like she's taken the position that if you want a

relationship with her and with your sister, it has to be on nada's terms only.

No compromises, its either all her way or nothing, and sister is on board with

that.

That is very sad and frustrating, to be cut out of the family for standing up

for yourself. It is hard; I too feel for your pain.
