Anyway, the four of them are going to dinner tonight for his birthday.

My daughter also spends a great deal of time with her husband's family. Since I was IP in 2018 she has barely communicated with me - even thought we were very close before that.

I have a serious mental illness, so does my husband. We are poor, especially by California standards. I know the kids love us very much...but we're not...typical. So we rarely see them. We're always last on the list. It hurts like hell.
I’m sorry. Thinking of you and sending hugs and supportive vibes.

Thanks for this!
