Is it any wonder that I do not have a closer relationship to my sister...here is the email that I get from her the day before my child goes into surgery....isn't this just wonderful!
Samantha,
This will be the last correspondence that I plan on having with you, unless it is in regards to our parents. I just wanted to let you know that I think you are a very cold and mean person. It is unacceptable that writing a blog on line is an acceptable form of communication with your sister. I don’t read your blog every time there is an update, as a normal kind, loving sister would call if there was a family health issue or concern.
I did not know that your son was having surgery tomorrow, as you didn’t care enough about your own sister to call and tell me. I have a hard time believing that you didn’t have time, as you obsessively write updates on your blog. Please don’t insult my intelligence with statements like you didn’t have time, because anyone who can write novels on line has time to call their sister. That is if they care about their sister, which is clear you do not.
I am no longer a part of your life or your children’s lives. I guess you got what you have always wanted Samantha…to get rid me. I hope you’re satisfied now. I would have thought that as a mother with three children you would appreciate having a sister, but apparently it only made you realize how much you hate having a sister.
You have hurt me for the last time; I have no more emotion or tears for you.

Dear Samantha's Sister -
My brother and his wonderful wife is our families main support with the exception of the heart support group. I rarely get to call them (they live in California), even when we are in the er, scheduling surgery or in the hospital. They understand completely how busy it is for a healthy family of 2 small ones can be, so when you add in a child who is chronically ill, the many medical appointments, insurance calls, pharmacy runs and ensuring the other child gets some type of attention there is little time left but to go potty and hopefully get a shower. Add in an additional child, a spouse that travels often, Samanthas school work, her business and her all the love she give to the support group, its a wonder she can even write on the blog. Grow up. Provide her with the love and support you would want and need if your were in the same situation. Take the high road. Samantha deals with the life and death situation of her child on a daily basis. What do you deal with on a daily basis - if you are going to run out of tp? My brother or his wife calls/emails us about every 10 days. Every so often the girls or I receive little goodie packages with toys and treats. Have you thought about doing anything like this?
Feel free to send this to her.
Give me your sister's email address. I'm not kidding.
Samantha,
This is a subject that is close to my heart because I just had the exact same thing happen with my sister. In August of last year I finally had enough and we quit talking. It took us 8 months before we could even stand saying 2words to each other and even when we do I am always getting hurt. She doesn't understand a single thing about having a special child. It's like I'm talking to a wall. I know this doensn't make you feel better but I want you to know I understand what your going through. Maybe we should pick a time to sit on the phone and chat a little. I am always here for you no matter what.
I hope Micah is doing well today. I haven't check his CB page, but I'll do that right now. I am so proud of him for being so strong and getting through this surgery. I can't wait to see how chuncky he is going to get!
Love ya,
Vanessa
