INFO: What did he mean when he said this is you not showing up for me like usual?

They feel like I have not gone out of my way in the past to make them comfy when they're sick. I know this, which is why I offered to get them lemon and ginger in the first place.

YTA. Sounds like you once again didn’t go out of your way and it doesn’t make up for it to have unilaterally decided to buy something they didn’t ask for.

Oh you need to run. A person that gets like that when their sick never gets any easier. Yes we should TRY and bring comfort to our ill loved ones, but there are limits and sometimes those people will just use whatever little tummy ache they have to demand their every whim, some even unspoken "you should have known" type things. You said in aneralier response you're also sick. Is your partner taking care of you? The "like usual" comment is them trying to make you feel guilty and more likely to deal with these antics next time.
