Sad story - I'm sorry for my grandmother's husband

in #sad-story7 years ago

After the wedding, my husband and I began to live with his parents, we did not have our own homes at that time. We talked normally, my mother-in-law always helped me, especially when a child was born. Never interfered in our relationship with my husband.

On weekends we left them a child and could go somewhere to rest. It seemed to me that this will always be so. But recently her husband's parents took his grandmother from the village to his place. It was my mother-in-law's mother, who could no longer live there alone.

And the family started constant conflicts. She did not bother me at all, on the contrary, when everyone left for work, I had someone to talk to and leave the child to run to the store.

At first, my grandmother tried to help something, but my mother-in-law was constantly unhappy with this, often even screaming at her. I was sorry for her, but I did not interfere. I could not make my mother-in-law comment, and even in her house.

Often my husband interceded for his grandmother, he loved her very much. As a child, he spent almost all summer vacations in her village. He said that the grandmother always helped his parents and food and money. But I can not understand why she is so irritating to my mother-in-law, only because she is old and now she needs to be taken care of.

Last time my grandmother began to hurt her legs, especially his heels, so she moved to us. She had problems with her legs for a long time, but she tried to treat the disease with folk methods, which did not give results, but only time was lost. Grandmother recently tries the evening, when all the houses, do not leave your room.

One day my husband came home from work and said that I would have to congratulate my grandmother on her birthday, she turns eighty. At this point, I thought that my mother-in-law would become a little more attractive. All the same anniversary.

My husband and I bought a gift and in the evening, when everyone came home from work, I prepared a festive dinner to all together at dinner to congratulate my grandmother. My mother-in-law was very angry with me, she said that I had organized everything behind her to make her stand.

But I could not even think that my own daughter would forget that Mom had a birthday. After this, the relationship in the house is so spoiled that it will be necessary to leave. It's a pity only my grandmother, so at least we talked with her.
