My husband's brother was the same way. When Adam would go into the hospital he just would not show up or call. So he was not allowed into our home because of that reason. After a few years of that he finally came to the hospital after one of Adam's stays and all is well. We just don't bring it up (maybe that is wrong), but the past is the past i figure those that don't show up will have missed the chance to really know Adam and that is their loss not mine. Saying that life is to short for me to worry about others coming to see him or call him I have to worry about him and to heck with the others. My sister is the same way i just call her and tell her to get her butt to the hospital and stay for a few minutes just to show support. Maybe your daughter needs to call her brother and tell him what she feels and leave it at that. it will have to be his move next.
