Dh is up in London with our 2 girls for a christmas lunch wth a group of friends (I was supposed to be going but have had flu-like symptoms all weekend)
Anyway, mil just called to tell me that very sadly, dh's cousin has died. Dh is not particularly close to his cousins as they live in a different country, but I know he will be gutted.
Anyway, mil asked me if I could try and get in touch with dh somehow, so I said I would call him and ask him to call her. I have of course done this, and I have told him the reason he is required to call urgently (even though she said she wanted to tell him and not for me to tell him!)
I just think that perhaps she could have waited until he was home, which he will be by 8.00.
AIBU to think she should have waited? When my gran died last year, my dad called my dh to ask him if he would be at home with me later on that evening so there was someone with me when Mum called to break the news.
I am actually quite cross with her.
