I feel so bad, here I was talking about my Dad and every thing we are going though with him. I forgot to mention my MIL was ill too. She died this morning. She had long standing diabetes and had gone into liver failure last year. Her time off suffering ended this morning.

Grace, what a road you and your family are traveling. My deepest sympathy and wishes that you find some small measure of comfort and support here. You are all lifted in prayer and wrapped in hugs.

Grace, I'm so sorry about your MIL. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in what's right in front of us, that we sort of forget about what's behind our back. Don't feel bad. I'm sending sincere condolences to you and your family at this time.
Hugs & prayers,
