My Brother and I Became Guardians of Our Three Siblings After Our Mom Passed Away – Five Years Later, Our Dad Came Back and Said, “Get Out of My House.”When my twin brother Daniel and I were eighteen, our world changed in a matter of weeks. Our mother was diagnosed with cancer, and before we could even process the news, our father left. He said he was not strong enough for what lay ahead and admitted he had found someone else who brought him “happiness.” His departure left our mother facing her illness alone while caring for five children.
Less than a year later, she passed away. On her final day, Daniel and I held her hands and promised we would protect our younger siblings—Liam, Maya, and Sophie. We didn’t know how, but we knew we had to try.
