In a story of family betrayal and inheritance, a young woman must decide whether to use her mother’s hard-earned money to pay for her half-sister’s life-threatening illness, caused by the man and woman who hurt her mother so much.
A Dark, Dark Time
At the age of 25, a young woman went through the darkest time in her life when she found out that her father had been cheating on her mother for years and had a 7-year-old daughter with his mistress.
Heartbroken
The family she knew was gone in a split second. She watched her mother go through severe heartbreak.
Sign Your Prenups!
After the divorce, the young woman’s mother walked away with most of their assets per their prenup, leaving her father to get by.
Forgive But Don’t Forget
However, the young woman eventually forgave her father for what he did, though she wanted nothing to do with his mistress or half-sister.
Rest In Peace
Last year, the young woman’s mother passed away and left her everything – her money, her real estate assets, and her business, which she now owns and operates.
Not Her Responsibility
She is in a relatively comfortable financial position, while her father is struggling to make ends meet.
A Terrible Diagnosis
This year, the young woman’s half-sister was diagnosed with a life-threatening sickness, and her father came to her for help.
Cold… But Necessary
However, the young woman is hesitant to use her mother’s hard-earned money to pay for the treatment of a child that she has no responsibility towards.
Could She Help?
“If she dies because she didn’t get the treatment she needs, would you be able to sleep at night?” The young woman’s father pleaded.
A Tough Decision
As she grapples with this decision, the young woman must confront the pain and hurt caused by her father’s infidelity and the impact it has had on her family.
A Mother’s Value
She must also decide how to move forward with grace and compassion, while also honoring her mother’s legacy and the values she held dear.

Another wrote, “Honestly, I think it’s a valid question to ask. If OP knows she has the ability to help another person live, but chooses not to, does that make her morally wrong?”
