I Won’t Give Up My Inheritance Just Because I Wasn’t the “Perfect Daughter”

My name is Wendy. I’m 35 years old and a mother to twin 8-year-old boys. My older sister, Cynthia, who is 37, devoted nearly a decade of her life to caring for our ill mother.

Meanwhile, I focused on raising my own family. Last week, our mother pa:ss:ed away. Since then, Cynthia has refused to share the inheritance, accusing me of being a “selfish child who forfeited her family rights.”
The real sh0ck, however, came when I found out that before her d3ath, our mother had legally transferred all her assets to Cynthia. This includes about $85,000 in savings, a parcel of land, and, most painfully, our family home.
What hurts the most is that my mother and I were always on good terms.
She had often reassured me that the house would belong to both of us. Yet the documents are legitimate, and her signature is there.
Now, I feel deeply hurt, betrayed, and overwhelmed. It’s crushing to be judged and shut out simply because I didn’t follow the same path as my sister.
At this point, I’m at a loss. I don’t know whether I should contest the inheritance, confront my sister, or simply accept the situation and try to move on.
