[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get two things: Why the mother called the DH. Why the DH didn't immediately call his wife. I get that she is in Beijing but when a family member dies the first thing you do is call the immediate family. Never a good time to break the news but why wait? [/quote] Not the OP, but I kind of get why she did this. She knew the DH was out of town and that the daughter would be potentially devastated and have no one to lean on. So, they were giving the husband time to get home. There was no way the mom could have predicted that the announcement would be made on FB - she thought she had time and wanted her daughter to have a support system. It seems fairly logical to me.[/quote] I get this too. Even without the distance and stuff. If something really bad happened to me or my family (knock wood), I would maybe call my stepdad first to see where he was in proximity to my mom before I called her.[/quote]
