My little girl is due to be Christened next weekend. Unfortunately my MIL has discovered in the last week or so that she will need heart surgery to replace valves in heart and so will miss the Christening. My husband and I intended to go ahead with Christening as it is a very small affair and all arranged. My SIL has now said to my husband that it is unfair we are going ahead with it. My reason for going ahead is MIL op is not yet scheduled and she will have a two month recovery afterwards. Added to this that the priest has very limited availability we could be waiting another 3-4 months and we would have to arrange things at short notice as we don’t really know when she might be well enough to attend. My priority in this is my baby as I would like her to be Christened. I am very disappointed that not once was my little girl mentioned in all of this. Instead all of the talk is about upsetting my MIL. Of course I am very sorry that she cannot attend and that she is ill. I also lost my mother late last year and coincidentally the Christening is falling in her birthday, which I liked. Again I am hurt that that hasn’t come into it or even been considered. However, I don’t want to cause a family rift. Should I just postpone it indefinitely or go ahead? TIA
