When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
Glad I didn't read this at work.Just a vent from a Cranky Old Lady (COL) - ignore if you want...
As you probably know, I'm one of seven kids. 3 of my brothers live about 30 miles from here, and the fourth lives in FL in the winter, PA in the summer. One sister lives in FL and the other lives about 120 miles away in NH. Mom has been here with us for 6 1/2 weeks now - guess who's the only sibling to visit her? yes, the one sister 120 miles away.
The first weekend that Mom was here we hosted (better known as "fed") a cookout for them all and mentioned to them all that she really likes to have company, and that at her age she won't be with us for much longer. Apparently they feel that since she doesn't remember anything from one minute to the next, it doesn't matter whether they visit her or not. Therefore in the past 6 weeks, no visits, no phone calls, nothing! She asks about them often, and frankly I'm tired of making excuses for them.
end of rant, now back to our regularly scheduled program...
I am alternately PO'd and heartbroken.
If I had a magic wand, I would wave it your way.
