dsiitan,
gotta be careful with diabetes patient esp your MIL got diabetes and her toe already got infection. last time my grandpa also same case as your MIL. his toes turned black and is like rotting liao. Luckily the maid quite good and really take good care of my grandpa. She cleaned his wound very well and also carry my grandpa to bath or carry him to the chair. but still because of diabetes reason, his toes continued to rot loh... Doc said no choice gotta ampulate else will become worst and will affect and cause his upper limb to rot too... My grandpa so poor thing, see liao heart ache... wanna cry. cos he was quite old le, 84 years old then...
my mil staying upstairs only... anytime of the day come down to our house also no problem arhh... actually i dun mind her coming down to our house but not that frequent lah. cos hubby and myself also need some times for oursleves mah... esp after a long week of work, we need the weekends to rest and spend time together. then MIL always like to "ding dong" our door bell during weekend... sian arghh... somemore sometimes when we took leave on weekday, she sure know one loh. guess every morning she will like go down to the void deck and see if our car is still around. If around, then she will "ding dong" our door bell again and asked why hubby never go to work. So fan loh!
Sometimes i kept telling myself MIL is hubby's mother so must ren and be nice to her but she's always so "bu zhi dong" until i very pekchek and wanna vent my anger out...
