I wasn't cold back. I told her that's good and to keep me informed. He's staying overnight in hospital and W and MIL are going back in the morning to visit him. I said ok. Thank you for letting me know. Sure, she said.
Later I asked how she was doing. She's ok. She didn't ask me back.
Idk.
I'm happy that FIL is doing better. And with that going on I didn't want to seem pushy in our communication.
Her coldness and direct response hurts. But I do understand that the situation with FIL is stressful as well as ours.
