Thank you both for your responses.My mother did tell me- and yes her and my father will not face this ugly reality. They are the people that like to so call “brush things under the rug” especially my father. I guess I am truly upset because I want to celebrate the holiday in the holiday and have been trying to plan this for months. Maybe I need to face the reality too.

Thank you both so much! <3
