Only one cousin emailed me- about the 5th anniversary of my mother's
death. She was my only friend.
I am surprised since I send gifts and cards to them all when
there is a special occasion.
They always lay on the pressure when it is about a family event-"why don't
you go" and stern emails from cousins when it is about something in my
immediate family, they need to set boundaries.

I am left alone to deal with this terrible event in my life and one
cousin emails me. I let her know how thankful I was and she was the
only one.
I am getting hardened about it- What is family about again?

Hi Toxie,

Sometimes people can be so wrapped up in themselves. My family isn't very good about keeping in touch either. Sending supportive thoughts your way.

Family is not there
