well, not all of us have been understanding and quite a few of us have pushed him away in one way or another. I don't get along with his wife at all and I was the first to cut off contact with them because of all the drama his wife was causing in my life and then my other siblings just sort of lined up behind me. I feel partially responsible for this and feel like we actually deserve it.... I feel badly because I myself was in his exact same position with my family a few years ago (feeling completely ostracized and hated by my siblings and a parent and saying screw it all!). I just hope we can work through everything like I was able to do and become whole again. We had a pretty rough childhood and all of us have been working through stuff so it feels like every time one of us heals, the next leaves. It's hard and sad.
