Grieving mother loans nursery to brother, he sells it after losing his baby
After losing her own son, a grieving mother lent her expensive nursery to her brother and his wife to use for their newborn under the condition that they give it back when they no longer needed it. Unfortunately, her sister-in-law lost their baby at 5 months into the pregnancy and the couple went low-contact with everyone to grieve. When the mother asked for the nursery back, she was shocked to find out that her brother had sold it all to take his wife on vacation while she was depressed. The mother was understandably upset and threatened to sue her brother and sister-in-law, but her parents and ex-husband are advising her to let it go.
