I got a Christmas card from my ex of about a year's mom. There was a letter in it with no good news. His dad has cataracts, and his mom has breast cancer. He and I haven't spoken and I've asked him not to contact me. I don't want to be friends with him, and I'm pretty sure he feels the same. His parents seem to want to stay in contact with me, (I think they still think that we'll end up together but it's not going to happen) but I want nothing to do with their son. I don't have his parents mailing address. Would it be appropriate to contact parents wishing them well and saying I'll pray for them, or should I just let it be?

Honestly, they mean welll...
Being gracious to them doesn't mean you'll have to deal with him...
You certainly must've made a good impression...
Send a quick note thanking them and wishing them well...
No one was ever hurt by being polite...

I keep in contact with a couple ex's parents. We send christmas cards, emails with updates on what's going on. I don't think it's inappropriate. If you want to, it's your right to stay in contact. Doesn't mean you'll ever have to see him again. It's totally up to you.

Totally fine to contact them. Just do as you had suggested. Wish them well and offer to pray for them. You don't have to give details of your own life..and don't want them to then give that info to their son.
