[quote=Anonymous]OP, my husband is a cancer survivor, and we received NO help (as in none at all, not once, not even sitting with him during a single chemo session or visiting him in the hospital) from his family, including his sister who lived in DC at the time. His mom, who was retired but still fairly young, did not even offer to help. A number of friends just... stopped calling and never came back. I do not forgive these people and never will, but what I have realized is that some people get scared and frozen in the face of bad news, and are completely unequipped to help out. They just disappear. Sounds like this might be what is going on with the MIL. [/quote]
