MY MIL WHO HATED MY GUTS LEFT ME A BOX AFTER HER DEATH – WHAT WAS INSIDE MADE ME QUESTION MY WHOLE MARRIAGE
My mother-in-law was a complicated woman, always keeping her emotions bottled up. She never liked me, but over time she came to terms with the fact that I married her son, and that was enough for me. On the day of her death, I was out of town. We knew she had been sick for a while, but it happened so unexpectedly that I couldn’t even catch a flight back in time.
When I finally got home, there was a cardboard box waiting on my porch with a note attached, “For Maddie. Open When Alone. Love, Betty.”
My MIL had never told me she loved me. I was so shocked by the note alone. I grabbed the box and rushed to open it on the kitchen table while my husband was still at work. What I found inside turned my marriage upside down……..
