I'm sorry about the situation.
Here's a microscopic bit similar but mostly totally different story:
My mom's father had Alzheimers. At one point he didn't recognise my mom at all.
His third(?) wife wouldn't let my mom and her brother go see him, had them left out from his inheritence thing (not that he had anything to leave to people anyway) and just generally was a bitch. If I remember correctly, my mom's father has been dead for a while now and there was some drama between his second and third wife at the funeral too.
I had seen him only like once or twice in my life. We mostly hung out with my father's parents. It was weird, like being told a complete stranger was your grandpa.
So many people have similar stories and there's many worse off than I am; That's often why I don't open up about stuff because there's always someone worse off. Situations like yours can be tough and can tend to linger, changing a person...Not you, but others maybe. I wonder if his third wife lived to regret he decision to bar your mum and uncle access to their father. I hope so.
Thanks for responding. I had thought no one would due to the depressing nature of the post...But people have and that makes me smile.
