After moving mom to a rest home, we cleaned out the house and things went pretty well, so I thought that we'd avoided the bickering that many families experience—hah. My dear brother started getting flaky, saying that he couldn't help because he didn't have the vacation time. Then, right when it was time to clean out the rat-infested area behind the garage, he announced that he was going on vacation. Our opinion of him has taken a significant hit, so yeah, it's a real test of family relationships. (It brings to mind a pastor's explanation that heaven is where we'll spend all eternity with our family...) That then brought to mind the Will Rogers quote "If there are no dogs in heaven, I want to go where they are", but I digress.
