He has no proof because there was never a contract between us and he kept telling me that if my son would help me out and fix things up there would not have been so many repairs to be made. I owe him for several months from 1999 until now. But I called him and told him if the repairs were not made he would not get paid. The whole apartment was falling apart. The brick wall on the outside had a big crack in it, the concrete steps on the front and back was crumbling to pieces, the plumbing went whacko, the nails that were holding the fountain was coming through the walls,termites was eating away at the woodwork, the disappearing stairways was coming apart, the kitchen light fixture burned out, the commode did not have enought pressure to flush the first time, iron railing on front porch came aloose from the brick wall, he had old stoves, refrigerators, air conditioner, washer and dryer in the basement, the floor in the living room had separated from the doorway, the wood in the front door had split, both storm doors on the front and back door would not lock, the heating system was not working properly and in the attic the roof was not completely all the way down to the woodwork because you could see separating places where birds and squirrels came in. Thanks for all of your advice. I do have two sisters but we have not spoken to each other since September, 1998 and they have acknowledged that I was not a part of the family and that nothing they had would be left to me when they pass away.
