My mom had the same problem. She has a 6 year old iPhone and sometimes my messages are delivered days after I send them. Happened a lot last year…

You aren’t sending iMessages. You’re sending text messages, and vice versa. Old school SMS and MMS (from the days of the first cameraphones…the standard hasn’t changed much since then) are the best common language between your phones.
Google/Android support RCS, the open modern protocol to replace SMS/MMS, and Apple is being sluggish to implement. Apple also supports iMessage, the default enhanced language to replace SMS/MMS, but that’s a closed protocol, and as such only supports Apple.
Sent from wefwef for iOS, but I’d still say Apple are the assholes here. The only reason I even have a damn iPhone is because most of the people I exchange pictures/videos with, and the people they exchange pictures and video with, happen to use iPhones. So there’s no incentive for all of them to switch to a third-party platform for just me.
