New father deals with wife's trauma and insensitive family comments

Having a premature baby is a traumatic experience for new parents, especially when it puts both the mother's and the child's life in danger. This is the situation that one father is dealing with as his wife and daughter remain hospitalized after three weeks. While his wife struggles with the trauma of the experience and the fear that she may never return to her former self, the father is trying to be her advocate and support. However, when his grandmother made an insensitive comment about the situation, it caused a heated exchange that left his wife feeling even more stressed. Now the father is left wondering if he should apologize on his wife's behalf or if he is in the wrong for not defending his grandmother. Join the discussion on how to navigate sensitive family dynamics during difficult times.
