ok where do i begin????? it's kinda long so bear with me.....
i have 2 sisters,2 bils, my mother, 2 nieces,1 nephew, 1 nephew in law, 2 great nieces, and 1 great nephew......
so today's my birthday and i am supposed to host thanksgiving this year, because its my turn. 15 people. so friday night i was soooooo sick. throw up, diarrhea, sweats, chills the whole nine yards. never got out of bed on saturday. so sat morning my sister comes to give my my bday gift and my dh says "she's sick in bed". ok her reply was "oh i'm outta here. i have a sore throat too and i don't need anymore." ok no problem there. still everythings good. no sunday am that same sister calls my mother and says she's having thanksgiving because nobody wants to come over here in the "germ" house. really. who's nobody????? she then calls my other sister and says " i'm having t.g. over here because everyone is sick over in "that" house" oh really. so 2nd sister calls me and asks if i'm still having it? and i tell her i am. i'm over what i had not sure what it was but t.g. will be 6 days away from when i threw up. i'm not an r.n. here, but thinking i should be over it. then married niece with the 3 kids calls and says "oh sure, we are still coming no problem."
so off to the grocery store i go spend $500.00 ( yup not a typo $500.00) and get home put everything away, feed son, give him a bath, read a book and off to bed. middle of the night ds has an asthma attack. can't breath. very, very, very scary. ok we get thru that and no thru the grapevine the words out that my son was sick. WELL. now the rule in my family is you HAVE to call on the persons birthday to wish them a happy one, so i get all my calls and sister #1 just leaves it at H.B. so I ask? are you coming or what? and she says "oh my daughter does not want to infect her kids with what your ds has!!!!!" are ya kiddin???????? i hope we call all be together for xmas. i was very calm and cool and said, "please go and have t.g. where ever you will be happy." and she said she was having it at my nieces. so now my niece calls and i she says nothing about her kids and infecting them. so i tell her what her mother said and then i proceed to tell her "ya know what, my ds will STILL have asthma on xmas- hate to tell ya".
i'm just so hurt. i can't even begin to tell you. i just wish they would have said something before i did the grocery shopping. are ya kiddin'? what am i going to do with a 23 lb turkey??????
happy birthday right?????
so in a nut shell- i threw up on friday and my son had an asthma attack and t.g. is thursday i have a TON of food, and i think a have a lousy family!
thanks guys i just needed to vent i guess. i just want to sit and have a pity party for myself. i can't stand to think that someone would think my son would "infect" them. really. asthma folks. ok. not catchy.

How rude! If that had been our family, we would have called to see if you wanted us to take your turn since you were under the weather, but to just do it?!?!?
to you!
(sorry it is a bit belated!) You deserve to treat yourself to something special.
