[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP- is part of the issue that you cancelled via text vs. a phone call?[/quote]

OP here. I cancelled via phone. Had a really undramatic conversation about it. Thought we at least understood each other.  The next day I had a weird conversation with my mother where she was relaying how upset everyone was. I tried calling again just to talk and my (two tries) calls were screened. I got a text later that evening officially cutting me off. I responded just once by text saying that I loved them, understood they were angry, and hoped I could eventually do something special with Bar Mitzvah boy but understood if they wanted space right now. And then I moved on to using DCUM for my venting![/quote]

OP once again. I realize the timeline moved really fast on this. I cancelled the day their final payment for tours was due. I have no idea what grandparents were thinking at that point, as I didn't press my mother to make a decision and I have had zero direct conversations with the other grandparents. Lovely people but we aren't that close.  I learned about grandparents making actual cancellation plans the day the CDC came out with new advice for high risk groups (that lead to the conversation with my mother). And, just yesterday is when Israel closed off borders, effectively, to tourists so that's when the grandparents went "public" with their cancellations. [/quote]
