i am going to be gone for a while. my father-in-law, paul, is in his last day's of his life. he has had lung cancer for a while and now it's the end. he has been more of a father to me than my own father so i am devastated. as are my husband and my 12 year old. the nurse came in today and said it could be any time. and i want to be available for my mother-in-law. don't think i have abandoned you. i will be back. if you are a praying person, please pray for my family and for my peggy my mother-in-law.

I'll definitely be thinking of you and your family and praying for you all. It is so difficult to lose a loved one, my FIL died just about 4 years ago (he was 92 - not a typo, he just started his 3rd marriage late in life). It still seems like yesterday.

We'll miss you and still be here when you come back.

I often think of Paul and wonder how he's doing. I am so very sorry, Kay, to hear this sad news. Please know that my prayers are with Paul and with you and the rest of the family.

Love and Prayers,

Wow, how bizarre. I was closer to my father-in-law than my father and he had emphysema.

I feel your pain and you have all of my sympathy. Be strong, cry hard. I will pray and cry for you and yours. (and I don’t care if that sounds sissy-ish)

Hi Kay,
Just checking in and thinking about you. Prayers tonight for peace for your father-in-law and for you and your family.
This is brutal~hang in there.
