[quote=Anonymous]Hugs to OP. Dealing with a sick spouse is so stressful, I cannot imagine doing it living with the ILs and trying to make them happy. I think your sentiment should be “I wish DH was well enough right now that we could do things the way we always have.” Unlike most posters, I say prioritize DH’s health and what he can manage over what preschoolers want. Tell SIL that hopefully next year DH will be more stable and you can resume your traditional plans. Could your kids sleepover at SILs on 12/23 so cousins can wake up together? Maybe with a special Christmas Eve brunch, you and GPs can join them in the morning and maybe even a cousin gift exchange. My kids are a little older than SIL’s, they’d take this trade in a second. This gives DH a chance to rest and hopefully be in the best possible shape for Christmas and you can stick with your original celebratory plans. [/quote]
