My son thinks I’m senile and is suing to take control of my $3 million estate. Little does he know, I’ve been secretly recording his plans to dump me in a cheap nursing home. Today, we go to court, and I have a surprise that will destroy his life.

I’m too busy taking care of Helen, visiting her every day, and making sure she knows someone loves her even when she doesn’t remember who I am. But I also don’t forgive what he did—not to Helen, not to me, and not to his own children who lost both parents because of his greed.

Some things are unforgivable. Some trust, once broken, can never be repaired.

If you’re watching this and you have elderly parents, pay attention. Watch for the signs: the adult child who’s always asking for money, the son-in-law or daughter-in-law who seems a little too interested in the family finances, or the relative who volunteers to handle things whenever there’s a crisis.

Most family members are trustworthy. Most adult children love their parents and would never dream of hurting them.

But some don’t. Some see vulnerability as opportunity; some see confusion as a chance to exploit.

And the ones who do it? They’re not strangers; they’re not criminals from the news.

They’re your own children, your own flesh and blood. I raised Bradley: I taught him to ride a bike, I cheered at his baseball games, I paid for his college, and I danced at his wedding.

And he locked his mother in a basement to steal our life savings. If it can happen to us, it can happen to anyone.

Protect your parents. Protect yourselves.

And if someone you love betrays you the way Bradley betrayed us, don’t be afraid to hold them accountable. Justice isn’t about revenge; it’s about saying clearly and loudly that some things are wrong, that some behaviors have consequences, and that family trust is sacred and breaking it will cost you everything.

Bradley learned that lesson the hard way. I hope everyone watching this learns it the easy way.

As for me and Helen, we’re still here, still fighting, and still together, even when she doesn’t remember what “together” means. That’s more than Bradley wanted for us, and for the next 22 years, it’s more than he’ll have.

That’s the only justice that matters.
