Hi, my lovely mother in law has terminal cancer and has taken a sudden turn for the worst. It looks bleak. My husband is only 30 and has a small family and has never lost anyone. He is already grieving for the inevitable. He is being unbearable to live with. He is angry and aggressive and thinks nothing of shouting at me in front of our almost 2 year old DD. She had started to say that daddy is cross etc and seems scared. I am so so sorry for what is happening and sm being as tolerant of this behaviour as I can but surely there are acceptable limits? I shouldn't have up put up with being treated like this. He has always been like this occasionally but his mother's illness seems to have given him carte Blanche to do as he pleases with excuse. Has anyone been in a animist situation (either his side or mine?) and if so, how can I get him to work with me through this rather than using me as a verbal
Punchbag. I am also sad as I love my mil dearly. We are only 30 and she is only 60. Thanks x
