This community is dedicated to those who have lost a husband, wife, or partner. Anything is open for discussion here, with the hope that we can focus on grief, bereavement, life after loss, and continuing on after a great loss.
My SIL's stepmom is intensive care, her cancer it seems although it was thought to be have stopped is fully involved, she is unable to eat, and in serious pain, now her kidneys and other organs are shutting down.
HIS MoM is in the hospital - unable any longer to care for herself - she is bi polar, dementia and serious diabetic. She has not be taking medication for all three properly for some time now has gone off the "deep end" so today is court date to determine what her needs will now be. Children have tried to take care of her but circumstances have occurred no longer able to do so....truly hard on SIL.

1) SIL stepmom taken off life support - she is fully involved with cancer and nothing more they can do for her but keep her comfortable - (her organs are shutting down) the feeling from drs is just a few days...so I am praying she goes fast without any more suffering she has been in pain for last several weeks ..
2) It appears his mother is going to be taken to a dementia care health center here in town where she will be able to be kept on meds continually like supposed and the feeling is she can start coming back more co herent ....waiting to hear the court's decision...
SO today is not the best celebration day of our lives right now.
I just had a good cry to release my feelings of loss too....as in 26 more days will be two years of losing my husband - this type thing does affect how you are feeling...so I am doing ok just sad...
BUT now I feel better and want to thank you all for your prayers
They are all so comforting and I believe GOD will help Shirley move to her heavenly place soon....
