Bagpuss Report post Posted August 19, 2007 Hev, this lady sounds like she's is very unhappy, and probably the inability to have children is just the tip of the iceberg. Drink makes you say things you later regret, and her hubby must of been so upset to witness it. It was a disgraceful way to behave and her comment regarding the loss of your sister's two children in a house fire is appalling............I hope she finds the help she needs. Try not to fume about it, she will have her own demons to deal with, and I'm sure she won't feel good about herself tomorrow morning. You behaved in a better way, by not reacting, so don't beat yourself up hun <'> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cmuir Report post Posted August 20, 2007 Hi From what you've said, I'd put her insensitivity purely down to the drink. Sounds like she was feeling particularly sorry for herself. I'd take it with a pinch of salt and let it go. If she said the same when sober, I wouldn't be so charitable! Caroline. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
