FIB,

I totally agree with you. If one of my children were sick the first thing I would do is to get them treatment. The next would be to make my calls. Besides, didn't you say that your wife was working?

It sounds as if you wife is trying to control whatever she can. I also think that she's doing a really good job of making sure she gets everyone's attention in letting them know what a concerned Mom she is.

To narcissists it's always more important how it looks then what really is!
