Jenny?
I certainly do remember your MIL! She made my mother look good!
I think my parents were the result of horrible childhoods and the war. Dad fought through the whole war (in North Africa & Italy) and came close to being killed a few times. Mum was a child evacuee from London then, when she returned she drove an ambulance ?during the blitz. I think these days they would both be diagnosed with PTSD.
It’s so good that your MIL is settled and happy, such a load off your mind. Let it be a Spanish hotel if that makes her happy!
We are both 74 so are thinking about our future but at the moment we are both fit and well. Fingers crossed that we remain this way for many more years.
