I am glad you came to some peace by saying goodbye to them, that just shows you how much common sense they have if they don't know why you don't want to see them anymore. Sometimes friends are better than family, you don't need people that only want to hurt your feeling's and make you feel like your a piece of crap. I am really sorry your mom wasn't better to you and it is a shame that she would pick a man over you but she has her own issues. The bottom line never let anyone abuse you family or otherwise.

I'm sorry that you went thought both traumas. I have a friend who was molested by her father as a young girl. She's a beautiful successful woman, but she too had told her mother, who was in such denial she took her husbands side. He too died, before he could face justice.

I'd strongly suggest getting some help with this... when you talk to an objective third party, hopefully you'll soon realise what a powerful force denial is. Your siblings don't sound as if they've dealt with this process well at all... kind of like an entire family convincing themselves that their mother is not a drunk, when she's passed out on the living room floor for the 20th time in 3 weeks...

You did nothing wrong, he did, and you mother should have been more willing to believe you. Hopefully you can patch things up with her, and work things out with the siblings.

Don't take such stupidity from your family. I think you need to work on yourself and find peace within yourself. Go to counselling and speak to someone else rather then your family. The man involved has passed and there is nothing really to gain from the hurt and pain that your going through. Unfortunately there probably won't be a way to make your family see what had happened to you. You are a strong beautiful person and you did not deserve to be treated like that as a child. Now it's time to heal your wounds. Good Luck

I am sorry for your pain, I can see how that would hurt being constantly rejected. How in there minds do they feel it is your fault because his kidney burst that is just ridiculous to even hear. I know you may long for a family and for things to be right but lets face it your mother is wrong for not believing you over a man and for not protecting you from him and your sisters and brothers are wrong for not supporting you . Me myself I would personally not be bothered by them anymore who needs to constantly be hurt by people that really don't love you. Get yourself some help and leave them out of your life or you will continue to hurt and I am sure you don't want that.
