Thanks Jules. I wasn't brought up to treat a person like this at all, especially my MIL. I know with her mental problems that she doens't see life like I do and doesn't appreciate what happens in the real world. She is a lonely old woman and she has 2 sons and 1 daughter in law who pay attention to her. She has 4 kids, is the oldest of 12 kids so there are a lot of other people who cold pay attention to her but they don't. I have encouraged her to wheel herself out to the dining room and get to know the other residents. She thinks she wouldn't have anything in common with them. So I have reminded her that I a m sure that each of these ladies have grand kids and great grand kids. I have even taken her out, sat with them and talked to them.

I just want to call her and apologize but yet I want to wait a day to let her know that she has hurt me.
