More Would I (or DH) be unreasonable?
She is a fairly heavy smoker and always has been. She is now having some heart issues (not that unusual in her mid 60s, must be relatively mild atm but parents in law both being evasive about details - doctor's apts and blood tests but no sense of urgency or need to go into hospital).
DH wants to give her an electronic cigarette to try as a present. There has been no prior discussion of the idea, DH just thought of it and has ordered one on Amazon No idea how she will take it - DD cried every time MIL held her as a baby and DH suggested it was because she smelled of cigarette smoke, and MIL didn't speak to him for about a month (we lived a long way away so the length of time wasn't that dramatic, but only FIL spoke to DH on the phone for several weeks). She can be a bit like that...
Is it offensive/ unreasonable? I will have to hand over the present (will be given alongside flowers and a token small present for FIL as a thank you for babysitting later in the week)
