Help pls

So, my mother needs major surgery, the removal of a kidney due to a large tumour. She has, to date been in hospital for ten days. I find hospitals difficult for both sensory and social anxiety reasons. I have visited three times for about an hour on each occasion. My sister-in-law, whom I despise and who has nothing but contempt for me, believes this to be markedly insufficient and has been discussing my visiting negatively with others. This has been reducing my ability to a, go to the hospital and b, go/do any other necessary thing (such as shopping, I now have no food) as anytime I am able to go out I am confronted by the necessity of visiting the hospital. I recieve phone calls from relatives I've never met berating me for not visiting enough. Im doing what I can. What do I do?

    Outraged, I hope that you can dig deep and make a massive effort to visit as much as possible. I found that it got easier each time and I was glad to have managed to overcome my phobia of such places. Focus on your mother and her needs.
