I wouldn’t bother, they’ve made it clear they don’t want you in their lives. And not that you asked, but I wouldn’t be inclined to seek a relationship/offer condolences to people so toxic they’d disown you for loving and supporting a family member for being herself.
Poop jokes are immature — what you describe is hateful bigotry. I’m glad your niece has you to lean on.
You're right of course. But the messy truth is that I firmly believe that Love matters most of all and I spent my entire life loving my family with the idea that I would do anything for them (and the idea they would do the same for me). So while I know they way they are treating her and me is inexecusable, it's hard for me to turn my back on them because I don't turn my back on people ya know?
