The first 20 years, I had peace of mind and pity for my brother. The last 10 years I have had anger and resentment. I'm glad we live 6 hours away. I've never revealed this.....EVER - He had a heart attack a few years ago and I hoped he would die. I even fantasized about how awkward the funeral would be when I refused to attend. Ugh
