Good morning. Unfortunately, what your mother intended is not relevant if she did not update her will. If the will she had left everything to your father, then it all belongs to him, and he can do with it what he wants. Children have no legal right to inherit and unless you were included on her will or included in his, you would have no right to inherit. If he dies without a will, then estate will be distributed pursuant to the state's intestate succession rules which would allow you to inherit; but if he dies with a will that leaves nothing to you, you would be out of luck. I'm sorry!

I hope this has given you information that has been helpful to you. I wish you the best of luck!
