"YTA, but I say this gently. Your dad was in a no-win situation. I'm not sure exactly what he was supposed to do, when his step-son was dying. 'Sorry, step-son. I DO have the money to help you, but I can't. Tough luck there, kid.' Seeing as though you don't seem to be remotely upset that your your step-brother passed, or that your dad is divorcing, it seems to me that you have a LOT of built-up resentment going on here. Strongly suggest therapy to help you through it. But at the end, the choice your dad made was between life and death, and he did the right thing." 💔
