My D17 and I were just in the pharmacy today getting meds...we were walking around the store and I said, we need to get BAma a card and send it to her...D17 said, "maybe I should get one too"...and so we did....I am mailing it tomorrow... Guess I was reading your mind...
It's not that MIL and I had a bad relationship, we are just alot alike...sometimes we would butt heads but for the most part I know she loved me...and I her...I don't wish ill of anyone...it's just hard to talk to her...I don't think I could handle hearing about H...my issues I know...but you are right...I would hate for something more serious to happen and it end like this...not what I want...
I do believe God has a hand in everything...one day at a time..and thank you again...I was just crying about it all and came here to lift my spirits...and it worked...
I'm gonna pull up those "big girl panties" and make this a better day...

I used to dread visits from my MIL. She is VERY strange---and we had a lot of "run-ins" early on where she tried to do things "her" way when she came to visit and it really pissed me off. Now, I can't even imagine what she is going through. My H has avoided her since his "crisis" began. To think her only son......I feel so bad for her.....and now I think finally get it. She is family. She is H's mother, the grandmother of my kids. I feel sick about how I've treated her in the past (not horrible, but not as warmly as I should have), and I am making it a point to change that relationship. However, she doesn't know how to handle the situation. I know that, just as I know how very painful and awkward this all is for her.
