Sister sends birthday card after three years of silence
After a three-year estrangement over their mother’s estate, a woman receives a birthday card from her sister and is torn between ignoring it and exploring reconciliation.
Dear Annie: My sister and I have not spoken in three years following a falling-out over our mother’s estate. I won’t rehash the details — suffice it to say, neither of us came out looking entirely clean. We were never close growing up, but we were friendly enough as adults, and I miss that.
