Selfish Self Centered Sisters

How do you cope when family always isolates you as a family member?
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions please do share.
How do I explain
It all started older sister was pregnant with her fifth child didn't get told about that then when she had the baby a little while ago I thought surely I will be told about the birth and acknowledged as an Auntie.
Once again, you guessed it No.
I have a belief if you are going to tell one family member about a piece of good or bad news tell them all don't isolate one out of all.
Then on the weekend, my sister in law announces my first younger sister is coming down Fathers Day weekend I've heard nothing from this sister as well.
I've reached the stage where I think these sisters are selfish self centred bitches.
I mean Im seriously considering not catching up with them at all as I'm sick to death of being excluded and showing up and still being excluded.
I mean they obviously don't want me in there lives so why put myself through the further pain by showing up.
I think Ill just stick to having positive people in my life who love and respect me for me.
And that Im afraid is definitely not blood siblings thats for sure.
Thats all I have to say.
Bye for Now

AH! i know the feeling!!!!
even though my whole family knows about my depression, my mum is still the only person who makes an effort.
My favourite thing in the whole world is singing and i recently toured to europe with one of my choirs, we had a comeback concert, it was the last time we were to sing together, we were practically in tears.
the concert finishes and i go to see my mum, the only person who bothered to show up, not my dad, not my brother, or my sister, one person, i was FURIOUS i still refuse to be civil to my sister.
siblings can get screwed i think! i have always been the child left out and forgotten, its time we took control and stopped waiting around for them to include us!
