Thanks, SA! Appreciate your vote of confidence!

I was supposed to go to a memorial service today for my BFF's dad, but she decided NOT to go at the last minute. Why? Too much drama.

Her dad walked away from her and her mother during his MLC in the 1980's and had a baby with OW, who had 2 kids from her first marriage.

Here's the math: 4 kids from 3 marriages = LOTS of bad blood.

Wonder if her father thought when he walked away from his 1st marriage that it would cost him walking his oldest daughter down the aisle at her wedding AND having her skip his funeral?

That when he gave power of attorney to his youngest as his health faltered earlier this year that she'd spend his life savings in a matter of months and cause friction between his oldest daughter and stepchildren?

Because that's what's happened. Stepkids HATE BFF - even though they've never met - and when BFF askes half-sister for accounting of estate last week, half-sister YELLED at her to "mind her own business." Translation: "I've spent it all, your kids ain't getting nothing."

What a mess!

If you're an MLCer reading this, THINK before you walk away! This could be YOU in 30 years!!!!
