Family Hast To Go!!!!!

Tweet

My sister, her husband, and four of their six children were supposed to be leaving on February 25, 2008 to move to Atlanta. For one reason or another, they are still there to this day. But now, the buyer has made my sister sign papers saying that she will be out on Monday at 10:00a.m. She wanted them out by Friday, but my brother-in-law talked the lady into letting them stay the weekend. The rest of my family and I are very concerned about everything surrounding this move. First of all, my brother-in-law is very sickly. He has heart failure, diabetes, high blood pressure, he recently stopped smoking and drinking and all he does is lay around in bed all day. It would not be bad if he were not planning to rise up Monday and drive the family all the way to Atlanta Georgia, which will take him at least five days. He doesn't have the energy to do anything else, but he is going to do this. Then, because the school year has not ended, my sister is going to go and check the children out of school, instead of waiting until the summer. But, her husband sold the house right out from under them. I have not even mentioned the fact that he is so mean and abusive that recently, three of his kids had to get in his face to keep him from hitting their mother. My sister has been working over twenty years at a public library. She is going to take a month vacation and then come back to her job on May 19th. She is afraid to quit such a good job, especially since, in Atlanta you need a degree to get a good job and she does not have a degree. She got the job at the library while going to college. They hired her on permenantly and she quit school. Within the last month, she has been offered a job as a dispatcher at the Inglewood Police Department, but she turned it down in order to move. Oh did I mention, her dying husband is the only one who actually wants to move to Atlanta. And of course, he is too sick to work. The entire family is trying to talk her out of going. Even the people at her job are saying that she should not do this. She has tried to talk her husband into staying but he is adament. Not only that, when she comes back in a month, she is leaving the four children out there with their dad who is close to dying. They 13,14,15, and sixteen. Yes, all of her children are a year apart. Now, since the husband is always in bed, who's going to take care of the children? What if their father dies on them? There is just so much to consider. I am hoping that my sister's maternal instincts will rise up and she will put her foot down about not leaving California. Most of our family and his are out here. It just doesn't make any sense and is the dumbest thing I have ever heard of.
