[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to get over it. Your in-laws are now at the age where their contemporaries are getting scary illnesses, hip replacements, bypass surgeries, and dying. They are facing their mortality. Some people handle death well. Some people completely fall apart. I had a cousin who literally passed out at talk of death, funerals, cemeteries - she truly couldn't handle it. You need to get over it, and focus on your memories of your granny. That is what's important. Keeping score of who sent which sympathy cards or paid shiva calls and stayed one hour vs four is ridiculous and unproductive to life. [/quote]
Exactly. Especially since they did acknowledge it in an email. Trust me as someone who has lost a few family members(including a parent) in the last few years, this is not a road you want to travel. You are trying to replace grief with misplaced anger. It is easier to make up a reason to be angry then to feel your sadness.
Don't start this -- you only only end up making yourself feel worse.[/quote]
