most of y'all know the details of what my mother n law did in the last few months...since her baby boy filed for divorce....for those of you who need an update : we don't get along anymore.
anyways...last nite they admitted her into the hospital after collapsing and now i need to know what to do...last i heard was that her lungs were filling up with fluid.
should i just let bygones be bygones and go up there and pretend that nothing happened?
should i go up there but only be there for the family and not let her know that i'm there?
i don't want to go and i don't want to speak to her or see her but if that is what needs to be done then i'll do it.
your opinions please.
thanks.

found out a minute ago that her legs were leaking....ewy...seems as though she's been drinking and drinking and never going to the bathroom so basically she's drowning in her in own fluids.
she only has one kidney...well one and a lil piece of another....don't know how that plays in all this but i'll find out soon enough...hopefully.

I would go & let it play out. It could repair some of the damage in your relationship or it could be an uncomfortable situation. You are not going to lose any ground by showing concern. At the very least you can say you tried.

I agree with Noonebil.It can't hurt you in anyway to show compassion for someone,it can only make you stronger.

She is still your mother-in-law. It would only be proper to go and show some compassion for this sick family member. She'll get what's coming to her for evil behavior no need for you to act like butt. I'm sure your hubby will appreciate your support during this time.

it's congested heart failure and she wants to die so i guess i'm gonna have to let bygones be bygones. now i'm feelin' bad for even having any ill feelings towards her but i can't just forget everything she said and did. i'll let y'all know what happens....thanks for always being there for me when i'm stressin'.  |

well i went and it was horrible...i mean it wasn't that bad but i would have rather had been switched with a switch and then rolled around in a big bowl of salt.
she looked beyond horrible. i had no clue..almost didn't recongize her...it was sad.
i really don't know what else to say.
besides...thanks.
