The Final Request from My Mother-in-Law: An Unbearable Demand
After marrying my husband, Isaac, we decided to live together in our cozy apartment. However, circumstances forced my mother-in-law, Elizabeth, to move in with us temporarily. Isaac had always had a strained relationship with his mother, stemming from his childhood. Despite our reluctance, we found ourselves in a situation where we had to sell Elizabeth’s large house and look for a new place to accommodate all of us. Elizabeth’s last request, however, was something I could never have anticipated and it strained our relationship to the breaking point.
