BIL's ex GF (with all the wedding drama) posted on FB that she has had an eating disorder for 11 years, is finally getting help, and that people need to decide whether to be supportive or "walk out and abandon her like BIL and his family." And if they choose to be like BIL everyone will know their true character.
Of course there are like 30 replies saying BIL is an asshole and a terrible person. I can't stand it.
She is also continuing with the cancer thing and I no longer know what to think. She keeps texting me that she is "going away for a while" and I told her that this is why people have been telling her to go to the ER. I am exhausted and don't know what else to do. I feel bad and wish I could help, but at the same time I hardly know her.

Do you really have this much extra time and energy to devote to someone who clearly doesn't care about your or your family? If so, I'm impressed. If not, then why continue to devote any resources to this?

All she's trying to do now is engage in any way she can, and the only way she can is negative. It's on you to walk away. No good (not even to her) can come from you continuing contact.

I feel like you really need to take a step back and block/defriend because you're pretty much inviting this drama into your life. You made this big hoopla about wedding drama, that happened the day before the wedding - to your BIL. And you keep responding to her.
STOP talking to her. And unfriend/block her. She isn't your problem, she's your BILs problem.
I blocked her on FB and on my phone- does anyone know what that actually does? Do blocked people get a message that they're blocked or will the messages/calls still seem like they're going through.

I think they're delivered an electric shock every time they dial your number.

Having witnessed and helped out in the aftermath of a neighbor coming home to his wife having strangled herself, I will ALWAYS call 911 if someone threatens suicide. ALWAYS. I totally think you did the right thing here @amoosed even if she likely is just being dramatic.
