My 70-year-old mother-in-law is getting married. She met a man in her nursing home, and now they’re throwing this big wedding.I mean, at her age, it seems a bit… much, right? Shouldn’t she be focusing on her grandkids instead of pretending to be a bride?
I was annoyed, thinking she was making a fool of herself, but then my husband sat me down. He told me that the man she’s marrying isn’t just a random nursing home fling.He’s actually her first love-the one she was forced toleave behind when she got married decades ago. They’d reconnected, and this wedding was their second chance at happiness.I didn’t know what to say. It wasn’t just some silly whim; it was a love story that had spanned a lifetime. I realized I had been judging too quickly. What should I do now?
