Basically my mother in law has MS and I know usually this is a very serious condition but I feel as though she uses it to be nasty or to get her own way. Basically it's obviously she doesnt like me, she told me to get an abortion with my second child (partner didn't defend me at all) She goes to the pub every night and gets very drunk. She comes to see us once every 3 months and never has the kids. She has her other grandkids quite often and overnight too which also annoys me as there always seems to be an excuse when it comes to mine. Her mother also has MS and when we went to visit my mother in law she went to bed with a hangover and when her mother rang to check on her she told me to answer and say she was Ill in bed and of course her mother assumed it was an MS attack but mother in law didn't correct her. When she gets drunk she crawls on the floor and stays up until 9 in the morning. My partner is constantly making excuses for her even when shes blatantly nasty to me in front of everyone. I'm finding it hard to keep my mouth shut but if I say something everyone thinks she's the victim. We have money saved for a mortgage but my partner is now saying he wants to buy her council house for her and let her live there for five years, sell her house and buy her a flat for £70,000 whilst we rent. She's up for him doing this even know she has a lot of savings according to my partner. Not sure if I'm taking this the wrong way or if I shouldn't be annoyed:(
