Ok so this might be a little long but here goes.i am 29 and my sil is 39. SHe has been out of work due to her own stupid decisions for almost 3 yrs.She has been homeless staying in shelters and streets since Jan when we could no longer support her.Well I changed my cell phone # due to she was giving it out to everyone to contact her so I got more calls for her then myself...Well I changed it and gave it to the hospital for emergency contact only and now she is giving it out again.Would this bug you.There is alot more history but would make this post very long..
Re: sil Vent...
I find this kind of hard to believe. She called the hospital and they gave her your phone number? That's weird.
But to answer your question, yes. I'd be more than irritated.
FET - transferred two embryos (boy and girl) - Nov 2014 - BFP!
I would call and complain about this, and tell them you want to be reimbursed for any costs associated with switching your number.
Apart from that, you don't need to provide the hospital with your number. Provide your name, and the police can find you if there is a problem.
It would bug the hell out of me, but I have to say, I would NOT have given it to the hospital as an emergency contact.
She's a grownup. She can take care of herself and has somehow survived years before you became her in-law and tried to rescue her.
Not really: if it was given to them in association with SIL's account, it does not violate privacy laws. It sounds like the hospital has the number as an emergency contact for SIL,. She has the right to any information associated with her account.
I agree with this. Change it again, and don't give it to her.
Seriously, this. My SIL is crazy as a loon and has my DH's cell number not mine.
