Mom Said 'Uncle Never Cared About You' - Then His Estate Lawyer Read My Name As Sole Heir

The text came through at 9:47 AM on a Wednesday. Mom: Uncle Richard passed away last night. Funeral is Saturday. Will reading is Monday at 2 PM.
I stared at my phone screen in the empty staff lounge at Seattle General Hospital, where I'd just finished a twelve-hour shift in the cardiac unit. My hands started shaking. Uncle Richard. Dead. I'd spoken to him three days ago. Our usual Tuesday evening call. He'd sounded tired but fine, complaining about the Mariners' pitching like always. We'd talked about his garden, about the book he was reading, about absolutely nothing important. The way we always did. "You okay?" My coworker Lisa touched my shoulder.
"My uncle died," I said quietly. "Oh, Emma. I'm so sorry." I nodded, unable to speak past the tightness in my throat. I excused myself and went to my car, where I sat in the parking garage and cried for twenty minutes. Uncle Richard had been seventy-eight. I'd known this day would come eventually. Knowing didn't make it hurt less. My phone buzzed again.
