I grew up with a grandmother who is an alcoholic and like clock work every Thanksgiving and Christmas we would go to the E.R. at least once because she would go on a bender and then take pills and try to kill herself. She did it for attention and loved everyone flying in and fussing over her. It was awful. eventually my aunt moved her to an assisted living facility near them and the rest of the family where she could be the center of attention everywhere and from what I hear she is happy and hasn't tried to kill herself since.
I understand where your husband is and it is a hard place to be and probably even harder because it is his mom. I would leave it up to him if he wants to talk to her. Some people handle things differently if he has told her how he feels and decided not to talk to her that is his choice and may just be his way of handling it. I will probably never speak to my grandmother again as I don't have much to say to her. I also lost my father to suicide and my childhood best friend, it is just something that is so hard to wrap your head around

Let me start by saying that hubby and his mom arent on bad terms right now. I think hes just to the point that he refuses to go running to her every time she does something. She is home from the hospital. Not sure on details. She sent hubby a text and apologized for her "stupid stunt" as she pit it.
He has a little tome off work this month so i am going to see aboit going to visit her one day. I can use the holidays as an excuse to get him to go if I have to

MissRoseLee, speaking from personal experience, I commend you on your efforts to take care of Josh and His Mother's relationship. Again from personal experience Josh will NOT regret visiting with and having a relationship with His Mother after the fact. Please feel free to pass this onto him.

Many prayers for your husband, you and the whole family.
An aging parent is a tough one to deal with. I'm not good with words, so if I put this
indelicately, I apologize. I'm glad you talked him into going to visit his Mom. Because regardless of the situation,
we only have one.
Strength to both of you. And as Josh said; it's not really his Mom.

Hugs and prayers for you, your husband and his family and bless you for trying to run interference for your hubby. Not all spouses are so supportive.

We are down here now. Its going well enough. One of his brothers couldnt be bothered to show up.
I had found an old photo of his mom and brothers. So I put it in a nice frame for her. Had hubby give it to her. She hated it. But oh stinking well. I wasnt wanting to come but hubby asked me to. Its been a good visit so far for his family.
