My Mother-in-Law
 

My Ex Mother-in-Law, M…, passed away this evening after falling and hurting herself several months ago.

She was quite a Character and we were always close, even after I split from my Ex.

A Religious person, I know she would appreciate prayers said for her and the family.

Thank you all,

Dave.

I'm very sorry to hear that Dave.

My heart felt condolences go out to you and your family.

:hug:

Dave, my thoughts are with you and your extended family at this sad time.

hi Dave. i'm so sorry for your loss. i am sending heartfelt prayers to you and your family at this time of sorrow.

Dave

My thoughts are with you and your family. This must be very hard for your Ex at this time as you mentioned she had an injury and was on crutches herself.

We know you'll support her as much as you support us here. Consider our shoulders are yours to lean on as needed.

if a character she had
memories should be
a pip

my thoughts are with you
love
me

I'm sorry that she passed away Dave. BF:hug::grouphug:

My thoughts and prayers are coming your way. :hug:

She lost her husband a couple of years ago and never really recovered, became dependant on everyone. At least they are re-united now, they were married over 50 years.

I am concerned for my Ex, she took her Dad's death hard, is still in Grief Counselling, I hope she can see this as a release from suffering.

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.

Dave.

Dear Dave,

I am praying today for healing and restoration for you and your family, for peace and much needed respite from stress and sorrow. I too hope your ex finds this a release, but still I know it is sad for her no matter that her mother is free of pain and in the company of her Beloved. Sorry to hear of the loss of such a loved character in your life.

Sending hugs and healing love, :hug:

Dear Dave,
I am not surprised you were still close with your Mother in law.
What a special relationship.
Here is a poem that soothed me when I lost those dear to me.
You and your family are all in my prayers.
Love, D.


" God looked around His garden
And found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.
He saw the road was getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb,
So He closed your weary eyelids
And whispered "Peace be thine".
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn’t go alone,
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home."

Thank you, Diandra. That is a beautiful poem. The funeral is next Thursday, everyone will find it difficult.

The family are sorting out where all the posessions are going, frictions from one family member are rising already.

Dave.

We had a full Catholic Mass, then the burial this morning. My Father in Law's ashes were interred in the coffin, too, so they are reunited in every way.

Physically, mentally and emotionally a very draining day.

Dave.

I was thinking of and praying for you and your family this morning during the service.

Sounds like it was a tough day all around.
How lovely your father-in-law's ashes were buried with your mother-in-law.

Please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
Air hugs coming across the pond, my friend.
Love,
Diandra
:grouphug::Heart:

Thank you, Diandra, it means a lot to me and my family.

Dave.

Dear Dave,

I am so sorry for your loss.

Dave, that sounds like a hard day but I am sure that you have the resilience to cope with it.

I think that the idea of interring ashes in a coffin is a lovely one. This is not about me but my family decided to do the same thing for my parents - we found it comforting and I hope that you will as well.

:hug:

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers, this Community means the World to me.

Debi, you have made the right decision regarding Bubba's Ashes and your reuniting.

I brought a bug back from the Wake. Nauseated, normal headache, sweating, temperature and constantly falling asleep. I am laying back down after this Post, taking my Ketamine early. I seem to be prone to every nasty virus going around this year, normally I am never 'buggy' ill.

Dave.

I hope you're feeling better really fast Dave.
Stress makes us so vunerable to nasty bugs.

:hug:

Hi, Dave,
 

'Sending good healing thoughts to you.

Thanks Lara and Mari,

After 48 hours of fitfull sleep I feel much better. However, in the morning I am going to the Hospital with my Ex, horrible germ-ridden place:eek: Heaven knows what we will contract there.

Dave.

Oh my gosh, Dave, .... you surely did not need MORE added to your plate. Throw that bug out of you immediately. Even if it offers to pay rent, the answer is NO to taking up residency even short term.

Hope you feel better quickly. Darn those bugs.

Hospitals and funerals are favorite places for them to find unsuspecting people to victimize.

PLEASE feel better.

Hope

Thanks Hope, I just have to had escaped the Hospital, visiting my Sister-in-Law - who admitted to being the progenitor of this virus - and then avoid the coughs and sneezes at my Doctor's Surgery tomorrow, where I am getting my liver Bloods taken again:Sigh:.

Then it is home for a quiet Christmas with my Ex where we will reminisce in peace as we feel like it. Boxing Day - that is the 26th - daughter 1 returns home with grandson, bringing daughter 2, SiL, granddaughter and granddog for 2 days. More unwrapping presents and a HUGE buffet, a tradition started when MiL and FiL used to come over when the kids were small.

At this time of year you really feel those who are missing, no matter how old you are or how long they have been gone. I was closer to my in-Laws than my parents to be honest.

Dave.

Dear Dave and Everyone :)
 

Dave,

That sounds like a lovely Christmas. It is nice to have a balance of quiet time and joyful chaos.

I hope you are feeling better. Being sick is the pits. I don't know about you but I always feel emotionally pitiful when ill. Like you just want to be tucked in by someone who cares for you and brings tea and comics in every now and again.

On that note, I am sending air hugs...
:hug:

Dave, I think you said it all in that one sentence. That is so true. Many here have lost someone dear to them this year and I am saddened that they will be without them this Christmas. My heart goes out to each of you.
