[QUOTE="93Cobra#2771, post: 16958397, member: 4599"] Ran into the same deal with my MIL. She had family spread all over the country. We had been dealing with her health issues for 10+ years. One of her sisters came in from out of town (first time in three years) and immediately started critiquing what we were doing. Except, she spoke to my wife when I conveniently wasn't there. She had stage 4 lung cancer and I was having to give her morphine regularly (hospice care). She piped up and wondered why we were giving her morphine and did she really need that. Wife called me in tears, and I immediately called sister and let her know that we had been taking care of her for over ten years and had it all under control and that she was more than welcome to move down here and watch her be in pain without the morphine. She passed away about 5 days after that. Her mom's family was/is a real piece of work, including splitting the grandmother's estate (she outlived my MIL by over ten years) among the LIVING siblings (3/7 had already died). Needless to say, that left a bad taste in a number of people's mouth, never mind that my MIL had taken care of her mom for many years while the rest of the siblings moved 1000's of miles away. They even sold the house to one of the grandkids for maybe 50% of its value without telling anyone. [/QUOTE]
