Mariah Carey’s older sister has sent out a “desperate” plea to her sister in the shape of a video, with the hopes to gain support from the singer who is estimated to be worth around $535 million.

The 54-year-old former prostitute already suffers from health complications – having been diagnosed with HIV – but after a home invasion attack in April last year, she was left brain damaged. An injury which has since resulted in memory loss, seizures, and an occasional loss of consciousness.

In the video, which was released by MailOnline this week, Alison begs with her estranged sister for financial support to help with the the ever-mounting medical bills – even more so now that she faces the possibility of brain and spine surgery.

“Mariah I love you, and I desperately need your help, please don’t abandon me like this,” Alison says as she gazes into the camera.

Alison and her brother Morgan hope the sincere clip will strike a chord with the songtress and perhaps lead to end their long-running dispute.

The new video comes after the We Belong Together singer’s brother branded her a “witch” earlier this month after she allegedly ignored contact from her family, who were reaching out on Alison’s behalf.

It’s been years since Morgan Carey was on speaking terms with his pop star sister and in an explosive chat with The Sun on Sunday he accused her of not helping their dying sister.

“Your sister is dying and she’s struggling and where are you? You think you are so fabulous, but you are a witch,” a furious Morgan explained to the publication.

“She probably spends more on dog food than it would cost to make sure her sister gets properly cared for.”

“Why isn’t our millionaire sister and her billionaire fiancé helping out?” Morgan added, in reference to Mariah’s Australian-born fiancé James packer who has been named the fourth richest Australian.

According to Morgan, Alison Carey almost passed away last year and the mother-of-four requires urgent brain and spine surgery.

But although the claims of Mariah’s hostility have come thick and fast, representatives for the diva deny the allegations that she has not helped her sister.

“Through the years, Mariah has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars supporting Alison and her children,” her rep told the Daily Mail.

“In fact, Mariah has supported her extended family for over two decades.”

“The world has to revolve around Mariah and there is no room in the world apart from her,” said Mariah’s brother, Morgan.

Mariah, who is known to be well versed in a lavish lifestyle, wears a $10 million 35 carat engagement ring that was given to her by her now-fiance, billionaire businessman, James Packer.

Her brother found out about the stars engagement through social media as the siblings have allegedly been out of touch for over two years.

Morgan hopes his high profile sister will be the one to save Alison, claiming that only she has the power to provide the former drug-addict with a “soft landing”.

“I would be hopeful, although I am not encouraged by the past, that Mariah would step up because she’s in a position to step up,” he said.

The We Belong Together wears a 35 carat engagement ring worth an estimated $10 million.

“Mariah is the one person in the family who could actually make a real meaningful difference to Alison’s life. The least she could do is put Alison in a good hospital and make sure she gets the care she needs.”

“The worst is yet to come and Mariah has it in her power to at least ensure a soft landing and avoid a life time of regret about missing this opportunity to forgive and help her only sister.”

Mariah is yet to respond to her sister’s video plea.
