Debbie, you are welcome for any thoughts that I have had that could help you both.
I feel that I can relate to your situation due to the circumstances surrounding my own father's passing. At the time, I had a stepmother - and we were not close. She was a very controlling person and made life just pure hell.
I have a half brother and we are very close. I have never considered him "half" of anything - he is my brother.
Something so strange happened the morning my Dad passed away. He was in a convalescent care home. It was Thanksgiving morning. When they tried to reach my stepmother, her telephone was not working. So they called my brother.
And it was from my brother that I heard Dad had passed away. It was just so much easier on me to hear it from him and not having it barked out to me by my stepmother.
Later in the day - they could find absolutely nothing wrong with my stepmother's phone. I have always liked to believe that there was just some divine intervention going on that morning.
