Guest guest Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 I haven't posted for a long time and it is good to find my way back to the group. For those of you who may or may not remember, my nada was very sick with 2 kinds of cancer. Well she passed away in mid May. As I did in life, I stayed with her as she journeyed out. I found as I sat beside her in the hospital watching the ravaging effects of the cancer on her and the torment she was in, I felt nothing but love for her. Her BPD did not seem to enter into it until....... A BPD cannot help themselves - they are who they are - so when she was in her final days of life, she still managed to rally up the old scapegoating behaviours towards me and made sure to let the golden son in the room know that I was annoying her and when he spoke rudely to me she told me to " let it go. " THIS WAS IN THE LAST few days of her life where she was still playing me off against one of my brothers. Well it seems that the golden brother (who is BPD/NPD) has been named the executor of the will. While my mother was sick I had to pretty much live in her home as my 2 cats also live here. Her will stipulates that I am to live in the home for 2 years to try and ready it for sale. It is an unusual clause in a will but I truly believe she knew that I was the child who could be relied upon to look after things and deal with it in a respectful manner. Well long story short the golden brother (who is the executor) has turned venomous and vengeful becasue I dared to point out his self-serving behaviours. He is using his power of executor as a weapon of threat against me whereby he has wanted regular inspections of the property, wants to make sure I am paying the bills on the house and even claiming a so-called death bed confesssion from nada to him where she felt I was " unstable " and that is the only reason I am in the house. His email threats have insinuated that I am trying to steal from the house and that he wants to videotape the contents to ensure everything is there. I might point out that this is the same brother who has done nothing around this property and claims to never see the work that has needed to be done. His narcisstistic superiority is such that he is above menial tasks. He has become nada in his abusiveness and threats. While nada lay dying he was planning a holiday for himself and his new boyfriend and on several occasions told me that " he couldn't handle much more of this " . It seems he has been assassinating my character to my other brother by spreading lies and distortions of the truth. I do not have to live here but as I am presently in the middle of a career change, I am not in a position to move out till I know where I am next jumping to. I have had little contact with him in this last year as I came to the realization that nada had BPD and that when I was around her and the golden one, I was picked on and mocked for " fun " and if I dared to take offense at their veiled aggression, I was told I had no sense of humour. Nada raised him to think he is better than everybody else and she made sure to always divide and conquer us by feeding us each different versions of her truth. My older brother and I have since talked and see what is happening but the other one has become an absolute dickhead. We are meeting today as a group to discuss how to dispose of the contents of the house and I am dreading it - I cannot stand this brother and my resentment towards him right now is strong. I shall see how I handle myself today and report back!! I find I am caught in a strange series of emotions - I miss mada like crazy at times because I remember the times when she was a good mother and then I think about how this golden brother represents all the abusive and tyrannical ways she behaved towards me and I do not miss her at all. Grieving a nada is strange. I know others here on the forum have been through the loss of a nada and the clearing out of their homes. The sooner the house and its contents are sold the better as I will be NC with this golden brother once all is settled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
