I don’t know how you do that.
I’ll tell you what I do know. I was one of six children. Through our lives one or another of us had challenges. My parents would focus on THAT child, with either resources or money. It sometimes felt they were playing favorites.
But as we matured, we realized that a crisis is a crisis. They were never not there for all of us, but crises require immediate action.
I would suggest you plan a special day for that child in your busy lives. Once a week, once a month…a lunch, a movie, whatever he likes. Let him be the special one for a bit.

@Mamapolo2016 thank you for sharing this with me, I know it wasn't easy. It's our goal to do something extra special for him at least once a month. I just hope it's enough.

You have to have a special "You are SO special" party for him! Kids love parties! And include cards that say things like, "We are SO glad you are SO healthy and you DON'T have to see the doctor very often! We LOVE you!"
