I didn't know where to post this but here i go... Today is fathers day, Seeing my dad always makes me happy. I expected my sister to go take me (i can't drive) Even if he doesn't know the date, or barely knows where he is. He always recognize me and my sister. Today was supposed to be a "happy" day for dad and for me. But i guess my sister doesn't care. I asked her what hour are we going to visit him. She told me "i don't know" Because i couldn't go, i will spend fathers day here. In my room crying, just hoping for a hug. I ask myself why, why me. Anyways thanks for reading this. I know it was stupid but i needed to let out what i'm feeling or i'm gonna explode.

I am so sorry your sister doesn't appreciate how much you want to see your father. Does he have dementia? I can't know what's in your sister's head, so it's hard to guess why she is vague about it.

Could you call her again about it, reminding her he does recognize you two and is happy to see you, and how much you want to go?

I'm wondering how far away he is and whether you might be able to arrange alternate transportation--maybe through a friend or a taxi--if she won't take you at all.
Thanks for this!

Your last phrase is rather intriguing because most of the time that's how I feel. Maybe you ought to ask her for an explanation. Didn't she tell you? Why can't you go?
