To expect an apology

So will try and keep it short.............
So DS bearded Dragon (BD) was ill and I took it to vet on Saturday and it had a Timor and was put to sleep- we only got it in October from SIL1. We didn't tell her as her partner had a heart attack just over a week ago and didn't think we should text that and are seeing her this week anyone so wanted to tell her in person.
So SIL2 texts DH saying why have we got rid of BD and when he didn't reply started swearing by text and being rude. So I texted from my phone that DH had gone out and forgotten his phone and wasn't ignoring her, but we had not given away BD it died Saturday. She texted I was an f'ing liar and full of shit and she don't want to talk to me among a lot of other things- I said 'whatever' as I know the truth and at 34 weeks pregnant with high BP I don't need the hassle. She claims she saw our vivarium on ebay on Thursday so knew I had got rid of BD and am a liar!
SIL1 rang earlier to see what's going on and DH was not happy as SIL2 had clearly rang her and stirred crap so he gave her my eBay login and she saw for herself it wasn't our viv on there on Thursday and we weren't lying about the BD. so SIL2 texted hubby to say sorry and added could he pass an apology to me!!!
He told her to say sorry herself but she hasn't- I have told DH until she does I won't be accepting it as I was called a liar and a lot of other names and she was happy to send that to my phone but not an apology! Am I right to expect my own apology???

Sounds like an over reaction all round!

Cluffyfunt · 04/02/2013 22:03

Sil is bu.

Bds are not great pets.

Don't worry about it.

Terrible communication on all parts were you not ringing her daily to see how she was coping with her partners heart attack? You could have lightly dropped the death of the BD into any conversation then.

I think your own apology is the least of your problems .. No wonder your BP is so high. You all sound a bit childish TBH.

whattodoo · 04/02/2013 22:04

So don't accept her apology. I think the lack of drama will do you good at 34 weeks. Hope SIL1's DH is getting better.

zoeymlucas · 04/02/2013 22:06

It was a different SIL that was rude to the one who's partner had a heart attack- we saw the one who's partner was Ill Friday and Sat ( before BD died) but that had a hospital check up today hence why we hadn't spoken to her till this evening!

zoeymlucas has had a bit of an awful week with her bils heart attack and beeing 34wks pg, I think she should be given a break!

I had a very similar situation with a gecko who had MBD from bad care from the person we got it from, it had to be put down we had had it a week and I spent the entire time trying to syringe feed it with no luck.

Wrote an angry email to previous owner who also called me a "fucking liar" and that it was fine when she gave it to me.

I think you are owed a proper apology.
