My sister and I have already decided to skip it. My brother and his wife and family may go. That's their choice.
The funny thing is, we don't have anything to do with our father (he abused my sister and me) and my mom divorced him when we were teenagers, but that side of our family called and checked us. They let us know that she was their aunt even though she divorced their uncle and my uncle and aunt said my mom was their friend. I can call and talk to them about anything. They have stood beside us. I now understand why my mom took care of my great-grandfather even though she divorced his grandson. She said they were her real family.
