To choose a religion over flesh and blood, should be considered a sin.<br /><br />I've sorta had the same thing happen to me, without the religious angle. When I finally stood up against my mentally ill mother and cut her from my life, her entire family rallied around her. The person who beat me, burned me and yes her family knew what she had/was doing. So, when I refused to give in, I was shunned by the entire family. <br /><br />My mother is a triffle older than yours and the thought has crossed my mind about her death. I've changed my name, legally and moved several times so finding me might be tricky to do, which is fine by me.

When I'm faced with similar dilemmas, I ask myself "What course of action will cause the least regret?" Often I don't have a good answer for myself. <br /><br />Good luck.
