Today has been a bit of an odd day. Some of you will know that my in-laws had nothing to do with me, Rob and my daughter for about 4 years but were there when he was ill and died. They promised him that they would treat my daughter as a grand daughter and no longer ignore her. They kept telling me how much they loved me and missed me.
Sadly i have heard nothing from them since the funeral Sept 2021. My daughter used to text her nan every month, she didn’t always get a reply and when she did she never asked her how she was doing and never seemed interested in her life.
Tbh it’s been a nightmare as I felt so sad that my daughter has had to go through her dad dying when she was 22 and then her grandparents and aunts didn’t want to know.
This morning she got a call from her cousin to say her nan died yesterday of a heart attack. My daughter rang me in tears, saying she felt guilty that she hadn’t seen her since the funeral. All I could say to her was not to feel guilty, it’s a 2 way thing and read the texts to her nan.
I feel bad that I don’t feel sad she’s passed away but I keep thinking we could have had a relationship but they didn’t want to know us.
I just don’t want my daughter to have a relapse, she’s done so well since her dad died.
Thoughts anyone?
