Local Woman Finds Satan in Family Tree

A cousin and I who just reconnected after 17 years were comparing our respective memories of various relatives, all on my dad's side of the family. It is a little bit startling when one is doing an inventory of the fambly tree to look closer in the branches and find Satan ensconced in there, in the form of one of my aunts. Who'd've thought. The Husband thinks that it should be more appropriately classified as Satan's Evil Handmaiden, but that's just semantics.

This is the same one who told me when I was 9 that the only reason my parents got married is because my mom got pregnant with me.

So it appears that she also told my uncle, her brother, that he was illegitimate, that my Grandfather was not his biological father as he had believed for, um, his whole life. It could possibly be regarded as a well-meaning statement if not for the fact that she told him this just after his biological father had passed away.

And to top things off, when my dad got ill and needed a bone marrow transplant, she turned out to be the only match, due to the fact that my poor illegitimate uncle was now out of the running. And she refused to donate squat. Because she was scared of the pain.

So my dad passed away. Guess who was at the funeral, chatting away with guests like nothing had happened? The Husband reminded me that she told the rest of the mourners that she was solely responsible for saving my dad's soul, as she was the one who had convinced him to convert to Christ just before he passed away.

Now if that's not Satan, I don't know who is.
