My MIL Who Always Hated Me Left a Box for Me after Her Death

My tale starts with what I deemed a difficult mother-in-law who disapproved of my relationship with her son. But it ended with me realizing I was wrong about her and her motives. After she passed, I learned some shocking truths about her, my marriage, and my life.

On the day Betty, my mother-in-law (MIL), passed away, I was out of town. Though she had been ill for a while, her death came suddenly, leaving me unable to catch a flight to return in time. Complicated is a mild word to use to explain my husband’s mother.

She was the type of person who bottled up her emotions, and she NEVER liked me. But as time progressed, she came to terms with the fact that I was married to her son, and that was good enough for me.
