I have a brain disease and went through heck raising my first daughter. So, when I found out 18 years later after having my first one, that I was pregnant I started PTSDing and was not in a good place. So, when I had Amber, my sister offered to take her. I knew then it would be a mistake but felt I had no other real choice. I was hoping against hope but sure enough, my sister, to make a long story short, made me into an 'egg donor', that I don't matter and my daughter doesn't even or ever has given me hugs even though I see her at my mom's often and buy her things etc. I respected my sister as her caregiver by asking her if I could take Amber here or there or whatever else, but she always found an excuse why I can't. She didn't nurture our natural relationship or anything. I knew my sister was a self centered insensitive control freak. She didn't take Amber for me, she took her for her and now I see that. I'm sitting here feeling defeated even though I tried to talk to my sis
