Just a short update.

W's parents were here for five nights. MIL has been more hospitable after going off the handle because I didn't greet her as soon as I came in the house. They came back in the daytime the last few days. W had first surgical follow up appointment today.

W gives me a smile on occasion. Otherwise regards me suspiciously. I work in another room most of the time but occasionally sit with her.

When she asks me for help (her activity is limited due to surgery), I do what she asks. She barely shows appreciation, but I do it because it is right, because I still cling to my vows even if she does not.
