Posted by sad-ex-farmer on November 24, 2008 at 20:12:04 from (207.118.177.55):

Well, the family farm will be officially sold Wednesday. Been in our family since 1886 when my Great grandfather moved there. Went to Grandpa, then to my Dad. What makes it so sad to me is that I have been living there taking care of Mom for the last 20 years. The last 3 years she has been getting worse and worse in health. I have been there(expected by her)every morning and night to make meals, do what she needed, basically her nurse maid. She told me that she didn't want to go to a nursing home and asked me to keep her home. In this time she made me her power of attourney, estate executor, every thing. She was in hospital in July for almost 3 weeks with surgury,then month in therapy, I told her she could not come home, I couldnt take care of her anymore. Did I mention trying to buy the place for the last 20 years, but she would never sell to me. Anyway, a week after I told her that she changed everything and put my brother in charge. I was told the only way I could buy was cash for full value. I hoped for a land contract but was turned down. He got a low appraisal, then took first bid, with all contingincies, selling the place for $35K less than ASSESSED value. My family gave me 2 monthes to get out. I have some of the best friends around, because the got together and got me moved. I had Semi's for equipment, gooseneck's, skidsteers, cattle trailers, box trucks, and more help than I could imagine. To top it off, my brother and sister tried to sell Dads' old Ford that mom had given me, after she told them it was mine. Family will Scr*W you when it comes to this. My own mother didn't care, but she forgot how mad she was when grandma died and Dad had simular situation. So I have righten off my family and not spoke to my Mother since. I do know that I have friends theat care, so I will be OK.
