Find Care & Housing
You are not going to get anywhere with the finances or the inheritance most likely...SIL has been persuasive and has probably done everything legally correctly, but if it would put you rmind at ease, get a lawyer to go over what was actually done and see if you have any recourse. Your elderly parents who were persuaded to do what SIL and brother told them was in their interest and the right thing to do, are not likely going to be able to grasp, let alone accept, that they have wronged you. It is possible that a trusted third party could guide them but also possible that anything they do would just be undone again as brother and SIL again convince them that you are the greedy culprit and they were right all along.

So, then, if after all is said and done, it's confirmed that you have in fact been successfully cheated out of your inheritance, just focus on salvaging any family relationships that can be and are worth something to you, and take some heart in the fact that you are the *victim* and not the perpetrator of this sad affair, and truly have NOTHING to be ashamed of. It is emotionally devastating to have the rug pulled from under you like this, and the reaction you had strikes me as totally normal and understandable...and yet, you are the one, possibly the only one, with some personal integrity in the situation. There would also be nothing wrong to see a counselor for yourself to help you recover emotionally from what has been done to you!
