AIBU to still seethe about last weekend

Mum has cancer. I visit her 60 miles away once a week. I work 4 days. I have 8 yr old who isn't keen on mum being away. I have MS (mild for now apart from fatigue). I have siblings who also pitch in with mum. Last weekend, for first time in over 2 months, dh and I took dd to visit Mum. Mum has been in hospital all this time and is struggling to adjust to being back home. DH has many strengths but cocked up this weekend.From the off he gave mum the impression we had to hurry home. My obvious anger at this resulted in me later being accused of being unfair to him - a not very private exchange in another room. I had just had a conversation with mum about DNR so I wasn't in a domestic disagreement kind of mood. The disagreement continued back home when I told him how angry I was but he wouldn't accept it. I tried and probably failed to keep this from dd by having conversations in another room. We are back to normal affability now. Only we aren't. I'm still angry. I'm worried about my very poorly mum and upset that I can't get to see her more often. Im trying to keep things normal for dd but business is not as usual and I can't believe dh thought it ok to have a stupid domestic while I was on a precious visit to Mum with our dd.

Thanks Bessie. She can’t get out anymore. She gets frozen ready meals delivered. I'm seeing her tomorrow and plan to make her some soup.

Frozen ready meals are so helpful at times like this.

Cook do really nice ones; although they're expensive, they're pretty close to home made quality from the few I've tried.
