I can't get over it. I told you my wife, my child and me were not invited to my nieces' wedding last year because my sister hates us. It's a long story. Yet my entire family went!
HOW DISGUSTING!
My mother is very old and very sick! She is on oxygen all the time.
I feel I should cut off my whole family but how? My mother!
SHOULD I WRITE THEM ALL OFF?
I FEEL SO OSTRISIZED!!!!!!!!!
HOW DARE THEY!!!

No. Just leave them alone.

Try to work on yourself. Your meltdowns and other problems.

You can't change anyone but yourself. You know this. You are intelligent.

Work on yourself.

Just visit your mom quietly and meekly.

No need to work yourself up in a lot of anger.

Read some Psalms.

Try to find some peace within yourself.

Try love instead of resentment. Love covers a multitude of sins.

Best wishes.

My brother felt the same way with our family. He got really pissed over some land which he had the right to be but he ignored all of us and we were confused for a year because he never called or answered calls but it was his way of disowning us for a while. We all talked to my brother though and said we were on his side but unless we ignored our other brother he wasn't going to talk to us. My advice would be to just try and calm your mind and body by relaxing and then ask your inner guide to tell you what to do.

Songwriter...I know this one may be a hard one to swallow, but, you need to realize that just because you and your sister aren't getting along, does not mean that the rest of the family should not socialize with her!!! This is not between the rest of the family and your sister...It is between you and your sister!!!!

You really need to lower your expectations of your family, on this one!!!

Your family, and dear mother, have nothing at all to do with what is going on in your life between your sister and you!!!!

I am sure your family still loves you, just as much, as they ever did!!!

You are taking this way to "personal"...Believe me...

That would be like me saying, my brother hates me...None of my immediate family were invited, and, I just cannot believe the gall of the rest of my family...Can you believe they attended, without my approval???? Even my poor sickly mother!!! Now, step back and think about how this actually sounds...

Since, your family attending this function has absolutely nothing at all to do with you, then, I suggest you "let this one go!"

Love your family while you have them; because in the blink of an eye they could be gone!!!

I pray you "contemplate" on this one...God Bless
