OP then said that with his brother's passing, the family was preparing for a wake. His niece had been crying and her mother had managed to calm her down.

His SIL had asked people not to cry so as to not trigger his niece.

He told her that it wasn't her who had lost a family member and asked her to leave. Since then she has not reached out to him.
