This seems a clear functional description of your problem and it doesn't
seem to involve variables or counting. Your code has come out very badly
formatted so it's difficult to see what's wrong with it. But the natural
XSLT solution to your problem is a set of template rules:

<xsl:template match="list[parentID='21'][1]" priority="2">
  <bold>...</bold>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="list[parentID='21']" priority="1">
  <second-thing/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="list[parentID='21'][last()]" priority="2">
  <third-thing/>
</xsl:template>

Then you just apply-templates to a <list> element and the appropriate rule
gets invoked.
