 have tried to fight the system for her three daughters that she left behind at the young age of 35. However the law seems to be for the step-father. She had a will made out but the problem is that she left the step-father as the executor. These children did not get the clothes off their backs or was even offered a picture of their mother. How can this be right? This is their only mother but the step-father had the right not to let these children back into the home to get any of their stuff. I have learned a big lesson. I have used all of my funds available to try to fight for these girls. I know my sister must be rolling over in her grave. The step-father got 500,000.00 at the time of her death. Her oldest child which is 18 years old is living in poverty trying to make it. The middle child who is 16 got married just to try to help herself out and the 11 year old got sent to her biological father that had not seen her since she was 2 years old. Do you know how I felt having to peel her off of me and there is nothing I could do about it. He is worthless. Works as a bouncer in a club and has numerous charges against him but it is o.k. that because her mother is deceased that he have the right to her now. He never gave those children a dime or any of his time. Their mother raised them on her own. How can all of this be o.k.? I feel like I am backed up against a wall with nowhere to go. I do not have the funds to persue this anymore. I guess maybe I am looking for someone to give me an answer that I can somehow try to live with. I feel like the system is for the wrong instead of the right anymore. When I go to see her grave I just cry. I do not know how I can let her rest in peace with all of her children in limbo. I hope one day that the step-father will have to answer to the man upstairs for what he has done. Every child should have the right to closure after losing a parent instead of being told they are never to come back to their home and that being o.k. with the law. Thank you for reading this and hopefully I can get some good advice on what to do! A mother and her children should have a right to be protected from situations like this.

Who to trust with a mothers wish is the big question? The mother passed away after several years of chronic pain & disability and on numerous pain medications! She left behind three girls and one boy. After making out a WILL believing the step-father would carry her wishes out. Trusting that would be done, she made him executor. Situation now being, that he moved on with a double life while she lay in a coma dying at a Trauma Center. Now her children are asking, "Why can I not have the rings my mom left for me"? The children say the mother had sat them down, the night that she was having severe back aches and was ready to pass,  she asked each child, what would they like to remember her by. However, at her passing the step-father refused to even give the children anything. No clothes, No personal belongings. We were told that he was to file the will no later than 30 days after her death. It has been two months & no will has still been filed. There is no monetary gains for any of the family members. But the children continue to ask why they can not have what their mother said was their's from her. Since the children are with the mothers family now we are asking that if anyone out there has knowledge of what we can do for these children to see that the mothers wishes in the will could truely be carried out so that our daughter could give her children her one last wish for each of them.

                                                    
                                        Sincerely,
