“step up for my mom”

I don't know my uncle well, he's on the East Coast, I'm on the West Coast. I've been low-contact with my mom since she left rehab, she moved to live closer to him and stopped answering my calls.

What I wish I knew
"the full story around the relationship between my mother and I"
If I could tell you one thing
"communicate openly and honestly with family members"

Clear regret.
The downsides outweighed what was gained.
