Here for so many years, I would answer the phone when my brother would call. I had no idea that during this time he had a gambling problem. He called one morning as I was getting ready for work that he had filed for bankruptcy. I went into shock when he told me that he had given his attorney a copy of the deed to my house. I had put his name on the deed years before not knowing his secrets.
When he called last week, he was still so mad because after consulting with an attorney here, I had asked him to file a certain legal document to make sure my home was okay. He went after me for causing him to pay extra to his attorney.
I responded with if he had told me that he was going to do this beforehand, I could have had his name taken off. All he could say was that he wished he could have strangled my attorney. He never took into consideration the fear that I lived with over his actions.
