(((seeker1950))) - I don't blame you for being hurt, even very mad for what your sister did. This was rude and not funny at all. If you were too sick to visit last Christmas, she should has visited you when you felt up to it...and given you those gifts. This isn't fair or acceptable for her to behave this way.

In the future, you should spend time with those family who value your presence. If you can't find this in family, then share it with friends. It was already mentioned it would be better to be alone or volunteer Christmas dinner at a homeless shelter, than be with family who condones this kind of behavior. I like missbelle'a idea.
