Conviently, and as the usual practice goes, same relative from yesterday's post backed out of coming to K's Bday party today at the last minute, claiming sickness. Interestingly enough, she didn't mention anything about feeling unwell yesterday.....
So I called her out about knowing she is aware of what happened with baby and that people don't need to walk on eggshells around me because of it.
Frankly, I'm pissed off about it. It makes me feel like I don't mean shit and that my grief is inconsequential to anyone, even some family members! I need to feel acknowledged, damnit, not ignored.
We'll see if relative has enough spine to respond.
