Again, my mom RSVP'd "yes" for her and her husband, and then didn't attend. (My stepfather doesn't drive, and my mom has macular degeneration, but my brother offered to pick them up.) We had flown across the country to attend this wedding, and I resent that my mother didn't even bother to see us. When one of my mom's nieces died, she made the five-hour drive and then didn't attend the funeral. You are focused on the fact that your mother didn’t “bother” to see you at this wedding.
