    Well, the OP hasn't been back to this thread for a while but is still busy posting on other threads (and starting new ones).

    I can say I really blame her after the massive hijack by Matthew.
    Accept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear

    Poppyoscar - if you care too much about everything you'll be quite vulnerable and might melt down, don't recommend it

    Nearly everyone has some sort of issue, i think earth is gods lunatic asylum/prison, where we're left to figure it out


    Yes if you care too much you are vulnerable but this does not mean you are mentally ill.

    I have decided that if my dad can leave all his money and property to my brother he can afford to buy a headstone without assistance. He told me he never had my mum covered yet as he thought she would live to at least 80. I doubt that very much as we were all aware that she had advanced vascular dementia. Yes it was my mother and I loved her (and still do) very much but I wont fork out a big sum like that when I have been excluded from family.
    Britain is great but Manchester is greater

    Well good for you - both in the acceptance that it's up to your Father to leave his money & property how he wishes and to not bow to pressure to pay a ridiculous amount for a headstone. :T

    Remember your Mum in your own way. :)

    I feel for you.. I've just gone through finding out my abusive mother cut me out of her will.. It really broke me at the time because t is symbolic as to how little she cares about me.. I'm slowly coming to terms with it now, it's a grief you have to go through, even though they are still alive .
    Many thanks to all who contribute on MSE :)
