It Was a Mixed Bag Visiting Mother-in-Law Today

Tweet

When we arrived, the nurse stopped me and told me that there'd been an "incident" with the mother-in-law last night. Apparently when she pulled the bathroom cabinet door open, which is a tall cabinet door extending pretty tall up, it pulled loose and struck her on the head. We went to MIL's room and sure enough she had an injury with a small bump above her left eyebrow. So we had to hear that story about 12 times over the course of three hours and how it "knocked her out" (it didn't) and how she was going to sue them for a million dollars (she's not). Granted, it was traumatic for her, but it was an accident. They were repairing the cabinet when we left. She is not complaining of headaches or soreness or anything. Then we took her out to eat at a nearby restaurant and she seemed to enjoy that. We even bought her a dessert because that's her favorite part. She asked us the same questions 4 times each. We know she can't help it, but it does wear thin after a while. Overall it was a good visit and she was in a good mood, considering. I always post a pink photo to go with posts about the MIL because her favorite color is pink.
