This time of year is meant to be filled with joy and family get-togethers, but not everyone has family or anything to be happy about. So are you ok?

    I get anxiety every time I go to my parent house. My dad is getting old and I love the dogs there, but I feel like an afterthought for family events unlike my brother from out of the country, who is feted every time he turns up for the holidays. I’m never asked to participate though I used to take some joy in doing desserts for these events. It’s just unfortunate that I’ll probably be guilted into moving in to taking care of her/ them in the future.
