Not a very caring man but you don’t want to let him come between you and your sister. Take care of yourself hope and see how things go. Xxxx

It's so true: you can choose your friends but you can't choose your family. Yes, block him.

So Sorry for all your on going problems. From this so called man. Tell him to get up and do something to help or just shut his mouth. You and your Sister if possible, would be better working as a team looking after your Mom,and supporting each other. She would be better off without that big lazy bully too. Hope things cool down. Thoughts are with you Brian

You need to care for yourself now hope whatever that takes.

But don’t let him come between you and your sister.

You can’t calm the storm.

But you can calm yourself.

Wishing you peace.

Sometimes in life you have to let go of people for your peace of mind and to be able to move forward.

If he is such a bad man then your sister needs your support.

You don't need to move in with your mum as but if you have time to look at the Ocean whilst you're sister is doing everything, perhaps you can have the time to meet with your sister and sort out a schedule. You don't even have to half of the caring, just some regular genuine help. e.g. a week of your holiday or one weekend a month? This will help your sister feel less abandoned to the sacrifices accompanying caring. ( As a carer who was left "holding the bady" by her sibling and knows the sacrifices involved, -job, youth, money, sanity -and how painful it is to hear that after years of not 1 day off, the sibling is going on yet another holiday), I think your sibling would love a chat with you alone over a coffee, saying what you can actually do rather than what you can't. If you are doing regular help, or helping organise help instead of you then there's no issue, but leaving one sibling to do everything is cruel to her, (if that 's what the husband is accusing you of), why should she do it all? and if she has a husband who threatens you not to talk to her, then either he's abusive and she needs support or perhaps you could discuss your contribution?
