Ever know a family member who became a non-person? (from grief or being disowned)

My Late Brother, Andy, right up until Mom’s death.

Andy divorced Rosemary, who we all loved, and wanted to marry a Porn Star.

No kidding.
And somehow believed that–

The family would support that
And mom would let “that woman” into her house.
