I would definitely accept her as my sister, but she probably wouldn't accept me. There is absolutely NO WAY I would have allowed that woman to be buried next to MY daddy. I would have had to tell her that, unfortunately, I don't feel as strongly about her mother's dying wish as she does. It would be enough to find out after my father's passing that he even had a mistress! Can you even imagine the havoc that would wreak on you mentally?? To find out that much of what you thought you knew was a lie? There are very few things that I feel super strongly about, and marriage is one of them. It's too sacred. To allow her to be buried next to my father, especially with my mother right next to him, would not only be totally disrespectful to her (mommy), but it would be like I was cool with all that went down, and I would not be cool with that at all.
