To force these arseholes not to spend Christmas in blissful ignorance?!

Right, so, as many of you may remember my previous thread concerning the toddler in laws (TIL) here goes...

So, my DC had his staging scan to see how his chemo was progressing (insert anaesthetic complication story here) and we finally got the results today.

It's not good news,

The issue now is that around a week ago, TIL asked that DH and I don't tell them any results until after Christmas so we "don't ruin Christmas"... WTAF?!

So, I spoke to another family member, who, bless their heart, is going round to confront them on our behalf and tell them they are being unreasonable...

Since the shit will hit the proverbial fan and the fact that I am the scapegoat for the TILs, AIBU to be elated that this family member is going to confront them and to quote her "cut their crap" or am I just being a little bit bitchy because why should I have to pretend that everything is ok when it is the complete opposite?

So sorry at this news!

I think you need to build a proverbial very thick, very tall brick wall around yourself and your DS with TiLs on the OUTSIDE. And not just for Xmas!

Good lord, just when you think it couldn't get any worse after their previous poisonous remarks they come out with this absolutely disgraceful crap.
It really is all about them, isn't it?
I am so sorry to hear the latest news about your little boy's scan but hope you have a beautiful Christmas with him, and without them.

And to answer your AIBU, no YA most definitely NBU. Flowers
