I was able to talk a bit to my younger sister about the childhood stuff and she corrobated some of my memories even though she was a year younger than I was (I was 5 at the time). My aunt who was there at the time claims amnesia of the entire event even though both my sister & I remember a rowing arugument between my aunt & uncle that time when they were supposed to be babysitting us. The uncle was just always weird, he said really uncomfortable stuff to me as a teenager that I DO remember. After that babysitting incident, my mom never let that aunt & uncle babysit us again because both my sister & I were hysterical by the time she picked us up. I unfortunately did see the uncle even after my aunt divorced him because I lived in a very small town. And he had the gall to show up at my house on graduation night with a "gift" for me that I threw away the second he left. My mom and my other aunt (the sisters of the amnesiac aunt) remember strange and weird things about the uncle too while they were teenagers and my aunt was dating him. Neither of them doubt my memory; both have told me so.
