OMG, Susan!!!!
A rich person couldn't afford to lose so much money, and I know you're not a rich person! And a family member, too - I'm SO sorry!

Susan,

You continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. I'll be in touch.

Sandy

Thank you for all your support. I did finally get to see my GD today and she is such a joy to me.

There is a mama Monarch flying around the garden today, so am hoping I get some eggs. I need something to take my mind off the money issues. Don't know how I will pay all my medical bills, but God has a plan, and I have great faith that all will work out fine.

I have seen people steal $ from the PTA, Cub Scout troops, car clubs and my neighborhood pool. My sister pulled a fast one on me. Bottom line is there are darn few people you can trust with money 100% of the time. Situations occur in normally trustworthy peoples' lives that cause them to justify stealing.

If the $ was taken by a relative who didn't have legal access to the account, the bank should give you your $ back if you file criminal charges against the relative. Unfortunately, that can turn you into the bad guy in the eyes of some relatives. "You should have given Johnny a chance to pay you back." "I cannot believe you put Aunt Jane in jail!!!" "Your brother needed the money more than you did." The thief ends up still going to Thanksgiving dinner while you are shunned.

Very sorry to hear about your situation and hope that things turnaround for you very soon.

Yikes, Susan. I have been wondering about you, and I am sorry to see what a relative has done. I hope you can find some recourse and get your money back.
