Ok our Hospital is 2 Blocks from the Interstate, our Home is 7 miles not a Great Distance.
I was operated on which turned very difficult, I spent 9 hours between life and death, Doctor wasn't even thinking of leaving. While I was being operated on one Son knew I was being operated on at the time he went by but he didn't stop.
Ok since I have been home I've been Home Bound and still plenty sick, have Nurse coming in taking care of me. Today on Facebook my other Son and his family went down Interstate. I posted to Daughter in Law they should have stopped in and seen how I was doing. She post back, How you are doing how about how I was doing? I post Well considering I can't leave the house I should be happy to be alive.
Oh the first one was coming from a Ball Game and second one was coming from the Zoo.
I wasn't happy with either one.

I'm just trying to understand this...are you a person who hasn't taken care of themself who could be veiwed as someone who doesn't deserve sympathy (for example someone with an addiction)? It just seems more often than not there are. Reasons why adult children make the decisions they do regarding their parents. If not perhaps they figured maybe you wouldn't feel up to a visit yet especially if it would involve grandchildren as well.
Regardless I hope you return to feeling better soon.
Brushrunner, why are you telling us this tale of woe? You sound like a typical, tyrannical in-law; we all know the type. Maybe your sense of drama and entitlement keeps your adult children away. You write:
"I posted to Daughter in Law they should have stopped in and seen how I was doing."
"Should have?" You harangued and tried to guilt your daughter-in-law on Facebook, for all to see? I'm glad she seems to be immune to your self-aggrandization.

This is my impression too. Across his many posts, OP has demonstrated total disrespect for the people around him, and is quick to blame everyone and anyone else for his problems. He punctuates it all with high drama. He has raised a whole passel uh younguns to be just like him. Now there are something like 25 of them and they just keep coming!
Well I know I'm not Happy and I feel their true colors came through, seems I'm going to have to talk with them about respect which they don't seem to have any.

Why would you do that? Apparently they are grown adults, not living with you now. They should have learned respect long ago. I wouldn't waste my time and lower myself having to explain 'respect' to adult family members.
That word, respect' was always in our home when our three were growing up ... especially the teen years ... we would explain you may not like me nor love me, but you will respect me. Today we have their love and respect. Not referring to how your children were raised, none of my business. But I certainly would not 'have a talk with them about respect this late in the game.'
Well I did find out our Son did call several times to see how I was. My wife said it's all the Daughter in Law. She has always been good about playing Head Games with everyone even the Grandkids.
The other one was out of my life for 30 years, not my doing.
Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. There is no child that would spend 30 years away from a parent, unless the parent has SOMETHING to do with it. Probably a lot........

My Ex tried to have me arrested and killed until I quit trying to have anything to do with them and then she left the area, it was just by chance I found where they were. But there was never set time I had visitation it was at her convenience which it never was. But I know you have never been in this position.
Oh may I add I found out after I found these children I had been paying two years on this Son while he was in Prison which I wasn't suppose to be.
