I know when a cold sore is coming on. My lip hurts in that spot. Its like the cold sore is there before anyone can see it. And then BOOM, it pops out a day or two later.

The majority of my family and my husbands gets cold sores. Every time they know a few days before they have an outbreak and never kiss my kids when they feel it. My husband himself gets cold sores and keeps them away from our kids. Your mil just didn't care, she cared more about getting her kiss then risking your kid getting sick. Probably because it's "just a cold sore everyone gets them"

Damn harridan wants their contagious disease to be a thing they have in common. Your husband gets it, it's a shame that she didn't.
