To feel pushed out

My mum is very ill and as a family we are aware that time is precious.
I have two sisters ,unfortunately I dont get on with one of them.
This means that family occasions are difficult and it often ends up my mum and other family members doing things separately with my sister and then me and my family .
For context I has tried several times to sort the situation with her but she wont budge.
At the moment I feel like I am being pushed out to make room for her (she will only do things when they suit her).
There has been plans with me cancelled but the previous day everyone has been with my sister. This has happened more than once.
A few weeks ago my other sister said she would stay at my mums so my mum could have an overnight stay with my little one, as because of her illness,my mum hasnt been able to do this. This stay happened to be my wedding anniversary and the day before mothers day.
I've rung my mum today to discuss it and she has told me they are going for a meal with my other sister and had forgotten about the stay. Which means I have to sort out additional childcare
I'm even more furious because we discussed my mum being too poorly to go out for meals so ive offered to cook on mothers day. Only to discover yet again they are going out to eat ,which I'm excluded from.
I know this may seem petty but im the one who does the shopping, rings and pops in all the time ,my husband helps with any DIY that needs doing,whilst awkward sister does very little.
Am I right to feel so annoyed ? I dont want to fall out with my mum but it has really started to hurt my feelings.
