Holly, welcome to the program.

Hi Dr. Laura, thank you so much for taking my call.

You're welcome.

I am having some, I'm 48 and I'm having some sister and mama drama. My mother is 81. She'll be 82 this year.

And recently the family has just been torn apart over a statement that come in her mail from a bank that

said that she had a cancellation of debt and she my mother asked my younger sister to find out what it was, so my younger sister found out what it was,

and it happened to be one of my older sisters, where she went and opened a checking account and put my mother on it

and unbeknownst to my mother and let it overdraw and just left it.

And so when my little sister presented this to my mom,

my mom, you know, didn't want her to tell anybody

and told her to keep it quiet,

but she had already told me about it because I was a banker and she was asking me what did I think it was before she even called to find out. And so, anyway, my mother went to the sister that did this and a sister denies it and it's calling my younger sister a liar and my mother's going along with it and my older

other older sister is going along with that this is a lie and it's like me and my younger sister have just

been ousted from the family because we have spoke up against this because my sister

that does be spinal things to my mother. It's been going on for years.

You want advice? Short quick and to the point? Yes, absolutely. Team up with your younger sister as

family and let the other people go. That was my question and it's harp. Yeah, well, that's your answer. Now go do the right thing.
