I wouldn't call this Family..

It was my Grandad's funeral today. He died on the 1st and today had been long awaited. The good- Beautiful ceremony, over 100 people attended, happy afterparty at a place he loved. The bad- My auntie was on holiday when he died, we all spared her the horror and told her the news when she got off her holiday a few days later. She blames my mum for not telling her, and she's drawn a big line between our two families now. My mum's spent the entire day crying about my Grandad, and now crying that she's lost her sister.. Her best friend.


I've been aggravated about it all day! Her manipulative husband is sucha control-freak, and I can even tell he's been spreading rumours all night just by his actions. I bet he's played a big part in this, seeing as nowadays he's got her so wrapped around his little finger that he could tell her he's been to the moon and she'd throw a party for him.

My mum and auntie were actually best friends, I always remember them together at any family reunion, singing & laughing. I'm actually sad for my mum that this could be the end of that. My mum's tried making up with her, despite doing nothing wrong and she doesn't want to know. Crying, my mum went and hugged her today after the ceremony- my auntie pushed her away and said "This funeral had nothing to do with me.."
It's completely ruined my day this has!



The day was supposed to be about George, my Grandad, and yet all the attention's been focused on my selfish Auntie, who everyone is getting annoyed with but she cannot see it cause she's too far up Kev (Her husbands) backside. 


I'm pretty sure my Grandad's dying wish wasn't that his two daughters lose their friendship and never talk to each other again.


Well done Auntie Debbie, I love you too.. 


I'll admit it's probably a sensitive subject to 'blog' about- But i can't talk to my mum about this, 'cause she cries and tells me to change the subject. I've been stressed all day because of it, and I've barely even thought about the memories with my Grandad cause they've been overshadowed. I've needed to express myself a little to be honest, and that's why I've posted it on here. I want people to realise that family is something to be cherished, not to be thrown away..
