fmil vent
ok this is going to be a long one...
Right before Thanksgiving, FH found out his grandfather (that lives in a retirement community in Florida) has cancer that spread through his body and he has less then a year to live. very sad and he is depressed.
FMIL told him they are considering moving his grandfather to Massachusetts to a different facility so he can be closer to family (FMIL lives in NY but has siblings in Mass - plus its a car ride vs a plane ride). Anyway, he hadnt heard anything else until saturday when he went onto facebook and saw his mom posted her status saying she gets to fly on a private jet. when someone asked why she wrote that she has to medically transport her parents up north. more people kept commenting and she wrote down the dates of the transport and then the dates they are moving his stuff etc.
She posted all this without even calling FH! FH called her and flipped out on her! she says she did nothing wrong and thinks he is over reacting...meanwhile all he said is that he deserves a phone call and not to read this on facebook. she doesnt see it from his viewpoint at all. in her comments she even wrote that she has frequent flyer mileage to use now that she wont be going to Florida anymore etc...as if she is happy about this and also seeking attention at the same time. The conversation ended on the phone and FMIL then texts FH saying 'no one cares that im missing another holiday bc of this' and FH wrote back that she doesnt seem to care she is more excited to fly in a private jet and use her mileage! FMIL wrote back..'enough already' and that was the end...or so i thought.
FH got an email yesterday from FMIL saying she is the mother and doesnt get spoken to that way and she can post whatever she wants on FB. etc etc etc (i wish i could access his email and post this email for you ladies to read)
I am sooooooo aggravated by this and there is soooo much i want to say but cant bc its not my place! i also know that as mad as FH is at her now, in a few days he will cool off and everything with them will be fine...and if i say something he doenst like about FMIL he will hold it against me forever. UGHHHH why is she so difficult. are we completely over reacting to ask for the common courtesy of a phonecall?!?!?
vent complete!
