[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I used to live nearby my SIL, but we had very little contact with her.  When my husband had cancer, she visited him only twice, despite the fact that he was in the hospital for months, and the hospital was only 15 minutes from her apt.  When my son was born, she saw him only 3 or 4 times in a year, but pretended to my in-laws that she was there constantly.  We moved away and my husband invited her and her husband to our new house since their parents were visiting.  They came, and both my SIL and BIL did their best to not lift a finger during their visit despite the fact that I was nearly 9 months pregnant and my husband was busy with our toddler.  When our daughter was born a few months later, they did NOTHING.  She did not send a card, email, or even bother to call.  I don't think about her often, but my MIL is visiting for a week (this will be the first time she sees her own granddaughter even though she is nearly four months old).  My husband's family is selfish all around, but my SIL is the most selfish of them all.  My MIL asked if my SIL and her husband could visit us at the same time (of course staying at our house again).  I just don't want to see her, especially since the house will be full with my MIL (who is also super self-absorbed).  I told her no, saying that I had my hands full with the newborn.  She is not visiting now, and my MIL is blaming me, despite the fact that everyone knows how selfish SIL & her husband can be. I don't care that I'm being blamed for SIL not coming, but my husband thinks I should have her here despite everything.  I'm standing firm on my no though.  [/quote]
