Put her in a cab and send her to a
Hospital. Let them deal with it.

My children and I are going through something very similar right now.
I caught my wife of 23 years having an affair with the assistant principle of our local middle school just after the first of the year. Turns out I was one of the last to learn of the affair. Our two sons have admitted that there was talk at school from fellow students long before it became "public" knowledge.
She told our children about the affair and told them that it didn't have anything to do with them and that it wouldn't have any negative effects on them. She left that night and hasn't returned since. About a month ago we learned that she had moved to the west coast. She continues to see the man she had the affair with periodically and plans on moving back to the area once "his" divorce is also final.
Two of our three children have blocked her number from their phones and told her that as long as she continues to see this man, they refuse to have any relationship with her. I finally had to take the youngest one to see a counselor for anger issues. I see something very similar for my children in regards to OP.

shite... sorry man. That’s awful. I hope this isn’t beyond repair.

I certainly wouldn't judge someone negatively for refusing to acknowledge the contact. This is a very extreme situation given the details moreso than just a simple desertion.
Personally I would not be able to make that bridge of contact after all that. It's just like an on-off switch for me. Or maybe just a routine of not having someone in your life and suddenly trying to restructure all that.

normally I’m a live and let live kind of guy. But that mother is a POS. frick her. I’d get the sister some help too as it sounds like she likes to be abused.

Man, after 23 years you’d think you would be past that point where you have to worry about that stuff.
On the bright side, have you been able to parlay some strange? I’d thing there should be plenty of gals willing to let you cry in their lap.

I don’t believe you. This never happened. And we’re tired of doing your homework essays for you!

People who are pieces of shite and assholes to everyone in their lives get to a point where no one wants to help take care of them and they die alone.
My parents have several friends like this and my mom is always lamenting about how it’s so sad so in so’s kids won’t help take care of them. Dont be a piece of shite for 70 years to everyone then.

Then she laid another bomb on them. She also didn’t like being a wife and had numerous affairs during her marriage. She told them both that the father they had known was not their father; they were products of affairs with other men and were half siblings. She told them who their real fathers were. One was a business associate of their father. Their father did not know.
This is the part where I say you just turn her morphine drip off and let the bitch suffer.

I’d do whatever my heart led me to do.
The satisfaction she’d get from helping or not helping her mother is for her to own rest of her life.
Not her dieing deserting whore of a mother’s.

my father stook around until i was 18....but then again he was never really around or that much of a father besides disciplining me lol.
he's an alcoholic and probably a drug abuser. Ive seem him maybe twice after my parents divorced since my mom was still talking to him a little. The last time was about 12 years ago.
I dont care to hear anything about him. My family knows this and dont bring him around if im in town. i'll leave it to one of my aunts to take care of him since she seems to care. Sometimes i feel they try to make things mend between us just so they can pawn him off on me. im no fool. im still debating whether i'd attend his funeral.

Real nice platitude you offered up, but it doesn’t apply to every one. As far as other folks family situations, you don’t know shite about shite.
I never claimed to be the all seeing eye of shite about other folks family situations.
Forgiveness is something we all need to practice though. That doesn’t mean giving in, not having consequences or not doing what’s best for you though.

I would obtain legal representation in order to secure whatever legal protection I needed from Mom, up to and including a Restraining Order that would include a "Stop Texting, Emailing, Calling and Facebooking Me" clause.

That’s nothing. I know several drug addicts who have guilted their families into paying for 8-10 stints in rehab. And nice places too, not your average rehab facilities. When working to pay for their drugs gets too hard, or when they have to start stealing, they go to their families and beg for help. Get sent to Florida or Arizona in a nice place for a few months of vacation. Repeat the cycle
