My father-in-law has recently passed away (within the last week). My wife’s family are super close and he and I got on really well. He adored our son and we all spoke nearly everyday day.
My mum was due to go away for a vacation the day after he passed. She’s given her condolences to my wife and said she’s sent a card. The day it happened she picked up our son from school for us last minute. However since then, from her holiday, she’s been sending holiday snaps, feet in the sand, drink on the pier, etc. And a postcard that said ‘lovely weather here’ sort of thing. In addition my son is unwell with a tummy bug and we’ve been up most nights with him, which my mum knows. I’ve also had to go for a covid test in amongst it all. She phoned but mostly talked about how lovely the hotel is. She asks how our son is but hasn’t really asked about me or my wife.
AIBU to be annoyed, whilst I appreciate the initial help, we’re going through a really rough time and it all feels a bit insensitive?
