"In our living room we have a whole shelf devoted to the visual history of our family...There is Kate with hair and Kate all bald; one of Kate as a baby sitting on Jesse's lap; one of my mother holding each of them on the edge of a pool. There are pictures of me, too, but not many. I go from infant to about ten years in one fell swoop.
Maybe it's because i was the third child, and they were sick and tired of keeping a catalog of life. Maybe it's because they forgot." 

This quote really stuck out to me as I was reading. I started to think that Anna was feeling a little unloved since Kate had to get all of the medical treatment, but I didn't think it would get this serious. It got me thinking how parents could sometime forget about the other child, unintentionally, if the other one is sick or in need.
