[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Personally, I would spend Thanksgiving with my mom in this scenario, even if the prognosis was excellent, just because of how scary the situation would be for her. [/quote] ?[/quote] Yes. Imagine how she feels. Your DH should be telling his parents that while you both love them, you're needed elsewhere this year. I can't imagine telling my spouse we needed to prioritize someone else just because it was "their turn" when my parent was ill and needed family around. He should be stepping up right now and not making you agonize over this very easy, obvious decision. In fact, so should your in laws. You will resent them for a long time if you leave her alone and this is indeed her last thanksgiving. I hope it isn't. I hope she recovers fully. But she's got to be the priority at this time.
