i am truely sorry to hear about your dear MIL. i know that this is a very difficult time for you and your family, sending you love and comfort. tc
I just went through what you're going through with my step-father. We all knew it was his time, and that he wouldn't feel any more pain when he passed.
Something amazing happened as I watched him go. I stared in his eyes, and saw his expression turn from terror to joy. I'd never connected death & joy, despite what some say, until that moment. Now I'm not afraid to die.
There's nothing cancer can do to hurt her when she goes. I pray you two meet again in eternity - joyfully.

I want to thank you all for your kind words, I just realize I have had lots of years with this special friend, but still hard to let go. She keeps asking me to take her home, not for sure what she is meaning with her on the morphine every hour.My son came and and he lost it, we lost my mom 3 years ago this month and it was hard and now his only grandma left. I took him outside and we had a long talk I think that help us both.
I'm so sorry - I know how tough it is. Prayers for your family, and for the remainder of her time to be peaceful.
MM, my uncle died of cancer, my grandfather of a heart attack and my best friend at the age of 13 from her kidnees rupturing. The thaught of losing them was very hard, but knowing that they were not in pain for long kept me sane.
I know it is very hard for everyone, but just remember the cancer can not hurt her anymore. I am always here if you need to talk... This goes for everyone.
It is hard to deal with death, but even harder to deal with them in pain. I personally think it is better for this to happen, then say them living years with this pain.
MM you are like my mother, you are very special to me and I hope everything works out for you. I love you and hope you take care. I will pm you with my cell, and if anyone needs to have a friend to talk to, please pm me and ask for my number. I am a great listener, and a good friend, expically in a time of need.

Thank you, I will be sure to PM you when I need you, get some rest now. It is late.
I really hesitated on this but... you truly might consider hospice? If you haven't already dismissed the idea. Pain control so much better, and much other help for your family and MIL, if there's a good one nearby. Please forgive if this is intrusive - I've been working for hospice for 11 years; most will care for a pt. in hospitals or NFs is that's where they are and family cannot bring the patient home. It's a really good thing. Hospice doesn't make it longer or shorter - just as comfortable as possible in every way. Lots of misconceptions float around out there. I added this job to my other therapy practice after my Mom died; they were just wonderful, and later served my Dad, and my sister and I too, as we struggled to help and cope. Again, if this is unwanted suggestion, throw it out the window. And deepest regards, and a warm hug to you guys.

Aubergina, no you are very right we have had her on hospice the whole time, every one at the hospice center, this is 10 minutes from my work and we was so blessed they had a opening, I can go over there when shop not to busy, I will say we have been blessed with where they have put her and the people are wonderful, as the family is on here. I just want to have her look at me and I don't know what I want her to say; I do thank God of the time I have had with her and all the 20 years of been fishing buddies. oh the laughs we had fishing and the long time on the lake in the boat.thanks again everyone.
MM, I'm so sorry to hear that your MIL (best bud) is so ill. Your memories will make a warm place in your heart - in time.
I hope she is able to "look at you" and tell you that she loves you, that you've been a good daughter (in law) and a best friend. She'll want to wipe the tears away as she will be released from her illness and the pain. And she'll want you and your family to move on - remembering her with love.

I don't know how I missed this Thread but I wanted you to know you are in My Thoughts and Prayers Too! I know what you are going through. I lost my dad 9 yrs ago as of Aug 3rd. It will forever hurt losing someone so dear, but you have the Great Memories to Comfort You! It's something you never get over, you just learn to live without them, as hard as that is. I am so sorry!
They just gave her 2 different types of medicine, I had to get some fresh air and crying so hard. Have been up here for almost 24 hours just long to go take shower and change clothes back up here since 6 am. I don't cry in front of her, but today has been the worst. she keeps asking me to help her she is so much pain but the medicine they have started giving her is just plain knocking her out. I just wanted to take her in my arms and take the pain away soo much. thanks everyone for letting me get this out. but have to walk alittle in the yard to get the redness out of my eye from crying incase she wake up again to look at me.
I come on here while outside to have my thoughts in another place for a moment. And try to laught on anything in here different then crying, so if anyone has anything that is laughable please send it my way. Just need to dry up so my eyes are not so red cold water don't help anymore. off for awhile to take a little walk to clear my thoughts.
take care all bbl

MM I am just a phone call away, you always have me to talk to. I hope everything is going to heal fast, it is very hard to lose such a great friend. I am very sorry for your loss, I hope that she passed and is not in pain anymore. She will be looking over you and your family. She will be there to protect you and everyone.
Cherish the Memories you have.- Status
