Props for having the courage to admit this here, as well as what you told your sponsor. Family is important.
I once let my younger brother down. The pain of that hasn't gone away, but I've tried to make up for it.
I doubt your brother was rejecting you personally, like me he was probably a little misguided, especially with your mother as she was.
My mother is very much the same. Not quite an alcoholic but definitely emotionally distant ad avoidant. Never re-married and hasn't been in any lasting relationships.
