With no more heart than a common alley cat. What she is doing to him makes me furious.

You're right Barb... Getting a good lawyer is much better advice then some of the things I had come to mind.......

it was the only thing from alot things racing through my mind that was legal.

congrats on your brothers award. from the letters to home that you share it is well deserved. i have a similar situation that you have. calling my dad a alley cat is a insult to the cat. he is still around kicking but my mom passed a few years ago. but all in all it really does make you stronger and determined to do the opposite with my kids. thank god i have a wonderfull husband and father to my kids. He lets me do any project that i can dream up to with with them.

Almost anyone who has been through a divorce can tell you it ranks right up there on the stress-scale with death of a loved one and loss of a job.........maybe moreso, because it seems so senseless sometimes. It can turn you into a different person than you ever thought you could be, and make you have thoughts you never would have expected. We all think of ourselves as being rational, sensible human beings, but divorce can screw your mind up bigtime.

Your Brother is facing this on a lot of levels right now. He is returning from an environment where he had to try to just stay alive every day, and then he came home to what he expected to be the exact opposite of that, only to find out that part of his life is upside down too. You can only be there when he wants to talk and be a patient listener, offering what good suggestions you feel are appropriate. That is all that good Brothers like you can do in these situations.
