Sorry to hear this Kat, I guess your mother in law isnt perfect, maybe she was having a bad day?
I have no experience of this realy, because I have always kept my illness to my self, about the most i will say when someone asks is "oh, up and down, you know" or somthing like that, I dont like people to know I'm ill, and even with those who know, i dont like to dwell on it.
Maybe say somthing to her like "I know that I've been sick a lot over the years, and I've always been greatful that you've been there with kindness and understanding", let her know that you appreciate it when she is kind, and also maybe give her a subtle nudge that she wasnt so kind recently.
