OP here-yeah, the health thing worries me.  [b]They have a history of keeping health scares/problems from me.  Sometimes, I have been the last to know and/or it has come out in a guilt-inducing way during an argument ("Did you know that your father has . . .") [/b]or I hear it through my same cousin after all of the rest of the family knows.  But, knowing this, I have asked about their health, and they have said it is fine.  My dad has a few manageable health conditions, but my sister does not seem to be aware of anything else.  And, my parents seem to be fully engaged with everyone else in the family, just not me.  They could be lying to me, of course, though.  
It makes me sad when I see all of the messages on FB about how thrilled some people are to be grandparents and how much they love their grandchildren.  I am so sorry that my DD is not on the receiving end of that.

This is ridiculous OP and says a lot about how they treat you.  My sense is that you did something they weren't happy with and now they're punishing you until you fix it.  You could drive yourself crazy trying to figure out what it is.  Like pp said, I would back off for a while and see what happens.  I'm sorry you are going through this.
