She says that when she confronted Shelly about the incident, “she just played it off like it was no big deal.”
“When I was 13 years old, my mom and I dropped my sister, Holli, off at her friend’s house,” says Shelly’s other daughter, Hillary. “When we were playing out at the driveway, my mom backed into the neighbor’s mailbox. As we started driving down the road, she kept hitting the curb and continued to do it.”
The sisters say their mother has missed important family events, including Holli’s wedding, her husband, John’s, 50th birthday celebration and the birth of her grandchild. They also say Shelly has been arrested nine times for behavior related to her drinking.
