for my former mom-in-law, dottie, who is grandma to my stepdaughters.
she's in the ICU after two sudden heart attacks, unconscious. 85 years
old and the dearest soul. this has been a rough year for her
physically, and i'm not sure she'd want to come back from this, so
please pray that she doesn't suffer.

thanks,

You got em. Prayers for Dottie and the whole family. May the true judge act
mercifully and resolve Dottie's health crisis in a way which is consistent

it may sound silly, but talk to Dottie now and tell her what you want to say.
I've done that with all the people I've been close to who died.  it always
work for me.  At some point I know they are hearing me.  Still, you always
wish they were here to spend more time with.  Just last night I dreamed about
a friend who died 18 months ago - dreamed that she hadn't really died after
all.  But I know it was just a dream.  oh well.............

My mom was very upset when my dad died, because he didn't know her the
last two weeks and she felt she didn't get to say she loved him and
good bye.  She was also upset because she was thinking angrily that he
had abandoned her.  Her minister came over and spent a couple of hours
with her.  He sat in one chair and told her to tell him all the things
she wanted to say to my father.  Well, after it all came out - she
felt much better and was able to say she forgave him.  She is doing
remarkably well.  Every once in a while we will remember our husbands
and get sad.  Mine died eleven years ago today.  He went peacefully
and I am so thankful for that.  My mom says that after I saw him at
the funeral home so peaceful and calm, I was completely different than
I had been up to then.  I had realized then that it was the first time
in so long that I had seen him without a furrow in his brow from pain.

I'm with DeeTee here.  I married a man 12 years older than me and had to
realize from the beginning that most likely he'll die before me.  It's worth
the trade-off to have this time with him, but I'm still trying to talk him
into living to 108 as I've long planned to live to 96.  I'll go on without
him when/if I have to, but I don't look farward to that day.

That's kind of how it was for my mom and dad.  He'd been declining in several
ways and had significant damage from years of RA. My mom really feared the
doctors were going to tell her he'd had a severe stroke which would have been
awful for him.  She was almost relieved to hear he'd died.  We all understood
what she meant.

Thanks so much to all the good thoughts headed my way.  Mel died from
a sudden heart attack with no warning before.  What kept me sane the
next few days, weeks, months, was the thought that his biggest fear
was getting a stroke and ending up a vegetable in the VA hospital.  My
mother said I was really out of it the first couple of days, but after
I saw him at the funeral home, I seemed to have gone on beyond that.
My middle son got married last Saturday and I was thinking that Mel
never got to see any of his sons get married or know the
grandchildren, but maybe he's up in heaven playing pinochle with my
dad and still not leading the ace of trump when he has a double
pinochle.  I know that's Greek to anybody who doesn't play pinochle,
but unless you make a trick, you can lose the points for the double
pinochle.
