Janet who cares if you husband pissed your brother off. Your husband was defending you and rightfully so, even though it would have sounded better coming from you. Sometimes its best letting the person handle his or her own side of the family so they don't get mad and hold a grudge with the in law.
Anyway Rick meant well so why dont you follow up and give your brother a call and tell him you really need a day or weekend off, if they can come and stay with Mom or if she can go there for the day. Janet I have not been here that much is your mom able to go to the bathroom alone ? If not that is hard for a son to do, unless his wife will take that part over.. Men are usually not good and embarrassed in doing that. I have been in your shoes and its hard to get the brothers to help, they won't do it on their own. You have to ask. I never opened my mouth so they thought all was well.
