She was an abusive alcoholic for most of my life. She hit the bottle pretty hard in my teens...just sat in bed and drank for years. She moved in with her boyfriend out of town (while married to my father) and he got sick of her and kicked her out. She moved in on her own where she proceeded to drink herself almost to death. She attempted suicide on the day that I was planning to visit her. I found her, saved her life, but she has permanent brain damage. She was eventually released into the care of her boyfriend and then accused my father and I of theft of her property while she was hospitalized. Many letters from lawyers were sent to my father. Eventually her lawyer asked for my father to confirm his address, and they sent court papers to his house to serve me. Apparently while she was hospitalized and when I was in university 200km away I was taking money out of her bank account. She sued me for over 10 grand while I was in university getting student loans because she was an irresponsible nothing of a parent. She eventually dropped the case and has attempted to reconcile with me to no avail. There's much more but that's the short version.
