We get text messages instead

[SHRED]

My wife lost her Dad last Friday after a long struggle with emphysema. Her and I have cared for him for years. It's been difficult.

I had one friend actually pick up his phone and call me.
My two grown daughters (wife has no kids) and my sister only sent a text or two to of condolence to my wife. No calls to either one of us to ask us how we are doing.

We've been getting no help and only requests from her uncles, brother, and nieces.
Her dad's brothers aren't even coming out for the funeral.

We are alone with the planning of his funeral which we are not sure very many will attend.
It's not like we are a family that fights with each other.
This death has highlighted big dysfunctions that I was not aware of.

This is hell.

Thanks for listening.
