My mother-in-law gave my 7-year-old daughter a phone every day just to keep her quiet. Soon, my little girl started seeing double, forgetting words, and suddenly freezing without responding. When we rushed her to the hospital, the doctor opened the phone and discovered something that made me realize I had never truly known my mother-in-law at all… 

When my husband’s mother, 64-year-old Margaret, offered to take care of our seven-year-old daughter, Emily, while I was at work, I thought we couldn’t have found a better solution.
My husband, James, frequently traveled for business, and I worked as a nurse at a hospital. Sometimes, I had to be away from home for twelve hours at a time.
Margaret had been living with us since her husband passed away. She always said that her granddaughter was the only joy left in her life.
At first, everything seemed wonderful.
But before long, I noticed something strange.
