It's all calmed down now, and is hopefully getting sorted out... Think in the long run it's helped a lot more.

Sorry just needed to vent. Thanks for the replies. x

As hard as it is to tolerate, I'd let things lay. You've said your peace, and that's all you can do.

If MIL doesn't want to be involved with your OH, your child, or you, then it truly can't be forced. I'd still take the high road, and send her Christmas cards, Valentines cards, and birthday phone calls, but I'd just learn to expect nothing in return. I know it's unfair, but believe me when I tell you that SOMEDAY, she will regret her lack of involvement in your lives.

It is really and truly her loss. I'm sorry, I know it's difficult.

You definately went the wrong way about it, but you had been drinking and had a lot on your chest that you wanted to get out to her so I can understand why you did it. Did she reply at all? I think it was good that you apologised and I can tell all you really want is for her to be a part of her son and granddaughters life which is completely understandable.

To be honest though, as mean as it sounds, it doesn't sound like she is going to be jumping on the next train up to yours anytime soon. Its sad and I hope that she realises she is missing out on her granddaughters first years and some of her sons most special occasions! Like PP said, its her loss x

I wouldn't of sent a message like that but as you said you were drunk and obv it had been playing on your mind..
Does she mean 'goodbye' as in she will be out of your OH's life now iykwim?
There isn't much you can do. Sounds like she favours the bro for some reason which is upsetting and must get to your OH.It's sad shes missing out on her grand daughter and your LO is missing out on her but at least you can say you have tried.
One day hopefully she see's what shes missing. Just leave her now if i were you.
