While my mom battled cancer, I was her caregiver, nursing her until her final days. But when she passed away, my mom split her money between my money-hungry brother and aunts. But it turns out that there was more to the story.
It turns out that inheritance, loss, and family are the ultimate recipes for drama. Let me tell you all about what happened after my mom passed away.
I just remember the days bleeding into nights when she was sick â something that was in a constant loop. But I also remember that the spoon-feeding and the hand-holding gave her as much comfort as they gave me. And then, on the other side of this story, my brother and aunts only showed up when they needed something. Usually, to have their bills paid.

Or, like the one aunt (while my mom was on a steady decline), she wanted momâs âcontactsâ to sort out a new house for her. Because my mom owned a real estate agency. The audacity was unbelievable.
I was baffled.
