Over in Pet Lovers. "Here I sit with no Wolfgang". I'm depressed just reading her story. Wish I could help her.

I know, sharke. I did my best. Still, I worry about Forestwolf a lot. Maybe she'll post again. I feel like she just needs to stay connected. I know I'd like to just be her friend if that's what she needs.

wow.. Is her story real?

Makes one wonder. I know if it was my story my old man would leave all his money to strangers before he'd leave me a cent that's how my story would work out.

My sister in law put up with 'stuff' all her married life from her 2nd husband come to find out the house and his monies are going to his kids from his first marriage. She put up with all that 'stuff' for yrs. for nothing he's laughing from the grave.

I hadn't read today's post when I posted a few minutes ago. Forrestwolf, are you the sole beneficiary in your father's will? Do you have a lawyer? It sounds like you need some medical care and some legal advice. You may be able to see that your Dad is cared for from a distance--therefore solving both your problems.

As a nurse, you know that you need to care for yourself first!!! You can't help anyone if you're not well!

It definitely places a heaviness on the heart. I wish she had a counselor to help her sort out some of the issues in her life. At least it seems Wolfgang is finally safe, I hope that is true. I know that there is no amount of money in the world that would dictate to me how I live my life. And if my mother left me with such a miserable human being, why would I care what she thought from the grave? I don't mean what I have written to be harsh, but what FW really needs is some perspective in her life. It is short enough, and not meant to be filled with such misery.

The dog is taken care of now. It would be cruel for a dog to be home alone and shut in for those long hours.

The only way she's going to get better is to start taking care of herself

She needs to get healthy to be wealthy.

@MaggieMack I though the very same thing. No amount. None.

And I hope the story that Wolfgang is now safe is true.

There are so many things with this story that disturb me, if true.

I just read the thread, and..... wow.........just........wow.

I am still confused by what she meant when she said that her father would not let her out of the truck.

Yes, having millions of dollars in the bank is nice, but at what cost?

Is a million dollars worth your physical health?

Is a million dollars worth your mental health?

Also, I think that she needs to re-home the dog.

Obviously the dog isn't happy there. I think that is why it keeps running away. Animals feel stress too.

Yes, I know that she loves the dog, but she needs to put the dogs best interest above what she wants.

Just my two cents.

The dog is no longer with her. That was a good move. She needs to keep moving in the same direction. Upwards. And away from her father.

Wow....that was some sad and strange reading.

There is no money in the world that would make me stay there. The minute someone took my pet to the highway, I'd be gone. I find it strange, she says she has to stay because her mother would have wanted that, but even her mother left him.

Maybe I am missing smething. But the only thing that matters is your health, if you don't have that, well you have nothing. I'd rather be healthy and poor.

there are alot of questionable and sometimes contradictory things in the post, things that don't make sense. I had a hard time following it all. Money must be the most important thing to some people but to me, my health is. Without your health, all the money in the world will mean nothing.

I only hope this is true and not just being said to appease those of us appalled by the fact that this dog is being treated this way and

From what I have read, and maybe I mis-read, but from what I understand, she can't leave, because if she does, she won't inherit money, enough so that she would never have to work again.

So, in a nutshell, the only reason that she is staying and is putting up with everything, is for the money.

As I said, I could have mis-read/misunderstood.

that's what I thought. I would want it written in stone and the will locked behind a vault to put up with that. Then again, maybe he knows he can treat her that way, because he has leverage (money) over her and she isn't leaving.

I believe you're correct.

I think she works in a prison, so I guess I can see why that atmosphere isn't helping her at all (other than a paycheck and health insurance).

Sadly people have real life drama. Some things are unimaginable to most of us.

But they still offer recipes and seek household tips/advice.

They go to work and the grocery store and post here. Their lives go on even if it's one foot in front of the other.

It seems hard to believe, but I'm sure it's true.

True, Dad might know that she has her eyes on the prize.

But here's the thing, just because she has A copy of A will, does not mean that Dad can't change the will at any time, and not tell her about it.

She said that her cousin drew up the will, well that doesn't mean anything, when it comes to lawyer/client privilege.

For all she knows, when the final will is read, she could find out that dear old Dad left everything to the local homeless shelter, leaving her with nothing.
