I am so sorry to hear that your d's car was totaled, but I'm glad she wasn't in it. I do hope that the driver who hit it came forward and has insurance and a valid driver's license.

As for your brother and his situation, you can't make this stuff up. I'm surprised his gf contacted you about him, but they all have the nerve to do things when they want something.
At least you've got a good handle on mlc and are aware of the many things that the mlcer can do to play the game.

I hope things work out for your d and she's able to get another car soon.

Take care of yourself.

Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to.
The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
