Gosh! I know how you feel in some way, ACJ! My D28 rarely calls me, and even more rarely sends me a birthday card or gifts for special occasions. But, I have to listen to her go on about the special things they do for her M-I-L (when I call her). I know, they live near to her in-laws who have been incredibly kind to her and we live thousands of miles away in a different country. It just hurts .... just a teeny bit. I guess we just have to accept that our kids are living their own lives now, and have different priorities. We just have to concentrate on the ones we have at home still. Such as my D16 who is, I'm afraid, horribly spoilt, and S21 who came back home, and spoils me now since this illness. So, sometimes things do bounce back. I won't go into the D21 saga ... that is just way too painful.
Anyway, enough about me. Chin up and just enjoy the weekend as much as possible. Once the D is final, things will hopefully get into a more stable place. I am glad that your D18 calls you frequently. That's something to be grateful, not so?
Take care.
