Your sister is just kind of going with the flow, so you kind of have to let go of anger/roll your eyes and make peace with her not providing the best care and not being a great communicator. With circumstances the way they are, you aren't able to change anything.


I meant to say, I'm sorry OP, and that it happened to me too, and it is very hard coping with dynamics like this.
