Thank you so much! I really appreciate the concern.
Sister in law went back to NY.
Mother in law is about 1 1/2 hours away. She won't drive here by herself...
He talks to his Mom every morning! She got a car phone so she could talk to him cheaper. (Long distace)She quotes scripture to him and they "Talk". She is 80 years old but you wouldn't believe it! When she calls now I just say Hi and hand the phone to hubby. I don't need her criticism right now!
I cut her grass about a week ago and she criticized that. So I figure she can reach into her pocket book (Which is very big!) and PAY someone to cut her grass next time. And hire someone to do all the jobs she had my hubby and I do EVERY weekend! Hubby doesn't feel like driving that long trip anyway. So I have a good excuse...
My kids don't have much to do with her.(3) They are all grown and she has never made an effort to contact them (Or her other non-JW family members). They have made efforts to see her but she always criticizes them and tells them how they should go back to the Hall.also.Now all of a sudden she is asking about our son. He lives about 20 minutes away. Having a sick mind I am putting 2 and 2 together! I bet with hubby sick she is looking for a replacement to do her "chores". She is in for a big surprise! She shunned him to long to get him back now! Let her get her Precious Witnesses to do her chores!
So hubby and I are taking one day at a time. He isn't a fighter and I can see him losing muscle . He is used to letting every one else do his thinking for him. (Except me!). I keep telling him he needs to fight this from inside himself. But he just wants to drink his miracle Noni juice and believe it will cure him. So far I don't see where it is "curing him". His Mom has talked so much about how so many food are "Bad" for you that he is afraid to eat anything. So we have disagreements over that. I don't think he has to worry about getting fat!
Please excuse my bitterness...I can't really vent to hubby ..and I can see a lot of friends shy away when you get emotional! I guess they just don't know what to say. So thanks again. I guess you got more than you asked for!
