Father did not have contact as she was growing up he passed away 10+ years ago.
Talks fondly of childhood listening to stories she was raised by aunts and uncles and older friends of her mothers.
So, where was her mother while she was growing up?

i like my MIL but she is all about herself. When i did call her to incourage her to have w seek medical help she said al she needs is time and i needed to move on with my life because of what i did. I asked for clarification but none was forthcoming.
Leads me to think your W has told her mother that you are the cause for the S. But, IDK......the mother may be putting her own twist on things.
I know this must drive you nuts. I remember a poster years ago that thought everything was great until he went home one day and found W gone. Last I heard, she never talked to him, wouldn't give a reason for leaving, and wouldn't tell her kids. The not knowing why, nearly drove him up the wall. People can do strange things.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
