From the day and hour I was introduced 2 my sister in law we have never really got on, she was never particularly welcoming or friendly. When I think back throughout the years on some of the things she's done 2 me she was just a total bitch 2 be honest! Before me and my husband met he used 2 go out with her best friend so I always thought maybe that's why she has such a bad attitude with me. (Cos she wanted her brother 2 stay with her friend). When we went 2 visit her she'd bring out old photos of her friend and him together and start showing them 2 me. (Why would anyone even do that) When we had our 1st son she was always constantly belittling me trying 2 make me feel like I'm a bad mother or doing things wrong. I asked my mil one day what her problem is with me and she said in her eyes I'm not good enough for her little brother. Anyway I took all that but she started getting a really bad attitude with my mum for no reason and being really ignorant towards her anytime we were in the same company. I decided I'm not taking this crap no more so I had it out with her and she has never spoken 2 me since (that was 2 years ago). We got married in 2014 and she came but never spoke a word 2 me on my wedding day. I got pregnant with our second child soon after the wedding she hasn't even acknowledged my daughter being born not even so much as a text message 2 my husband 2 say congrats. Nothing. Because of this my husband has fallen out with her too. Anyway we kept hearing from other members of the family that she hasn't been well these past 6 weeks, we didn't really think much of it but then yesterday we got the news that they have found a shadow on her brain, she has 2 go in 2 hospital on wed then we'll know for sure what it is. She had cancer before years ago but was in remission. By the sounds of things its not looking good. I just don't know now where 2 go from here. Should I make contact with her? I told my husband last night 2 go and see her but I don't know if I can. We never had much of a relationship so why start now. I know how heartless this sounds but she's made my life hell for the past 10 years, I moved 2 this area with my husband and I don't have any family or friends close by so I have 2 depend on his family. I'm just scared that their all gonna turn against me now cos of this. Should I be the bigger person and go and see her?? Its just a really hard situation and I don't know what 2 do
