I agree about the money part...unless it is true that she did not want to spend money on his medical care as the kids allege then I would have a problem with that as well. I also agree with the "me time " . There again are the allegations of the money being spent on a boyfriend . So little is known about Lana ...I had no idea that she had a profession and or income of her own.
I have followed this over the years as well off and on and the part that was upsetting to me is where not only his kids , but also some of his friends have said that they had to go through Lana to have any communication with Randy .
That was troubling to me .I have dealt with that with my brother and his ex wife and it's not fun ! Then if we did get to speak to him she either was on another line or he was on speaker phone .. aaarrrggghhh
It would be interesting to know if the animosity with the kids and Lana was always there or if it developed over the years . Did she try to buffer and encourage his relationship with his kids, or did she add fuel to the fire and encourage the alienation as they allege ?
That's a hard situation, I've been the step-mom to pretty much grown children and my own mother sat me down and told me that if I loved this man I should do everything in my power to try to preserve or encourage him having a relationship with them ....After all she reminded me , they were his kids long before I entered the picture . It took a lot of sucking it up and brushing off my own hurt feelings over especially the daughters treatment of me , but long after their father and I split but remained friends, I still encourage him to at least make some kind of peace with her before it's too late .
The money part isn't that big of a deal to me, what's a cruise when he is worth millions ?Its not anyone business how they spend their own money . It's the neglect of care that is alleged that is bothersome to me .And if it's true that she was a catalyst for the alienation of his children that is a problem .
Also , they allege that she supplied him with drugs and alcohol...is this suppose to mean that she partied with him , or she just made it readily available to him. Enablers are the worst. My ex hubs mother gives her narcotics to her sons who have been in and out of rehabs,gives them money and basically feeds their addictions,She does it because she loves them and doesn't want to see them hurt and does not realize she is slowly killing them.
My point being, if this allegation is true , was it done with bad intentions or out of the illusion that she was helping him ? My ex mother in law has a heart of gold and nothing she does is done with bad intent..it just has those ramifications that she cannot see due to her love of her children. Is this perhaps what the situation was here and not that she kept him drunk for her own benefit ?Or is it a case of two people with substance abuse problems ? Or is Randy clean and sober and has been for a very long time as Lanas brother posted ?
So many questions while so little is really known about the truth, which I remain convinced lies somewhere in the middle ...All at the expense of Randy's well being .I am looking forward to seeing what Jeff ( Lanas brother ) is saying he is going to expose, I do think that at the least he may be sugar coating a few things , such as Randy is doing well and is and has been clean and sober for a very long time ? If this were the case then why petition the courts and ask for a conservatorship , and why were the police called to the home with reports of an intoxicated man ?
We have heard so much over the years from the children and the ex wife's side of things that I am curious as to what Jeff is saying he is going to expose .Maybe some of this will shed a little more light into what is really going on here.
God bless Randy Meisner and help him to be strong and make the right decisions to help him find some sort of peace in his life .
