So been gone a while.....here is the reason
My birthday was Wednesday.....well Tuesday evening we had to take mother in law back to Hospital. (read blogs before about reasoning, basically she had cancer that matastisized all over) On my birthday we found out that it had spread even more to her stomach and glands and the oncologist said he doesnt recommend further treatment. So he set up hospice for her and she would be on it at home(she lives with us, she is schizophrenic on top of all that so we took care of her),.....so we had been taking care of her and they sent her home.....Well Saturday night she had foam stuff coming from her nose we later found out it was brain fluid. The hospice nurse came out and told us she was going to pass away that evening or the next day. and that we just needed to make her comfortable....she was on liquid morphine that she took every 3 hours to keep her comfortable. she passed away last night at 9:45pm or so. It was all the sudden. It was so hard.....I have been with my husband for 10years and she has been in my life and we have been taking care of her all that time so we had a relationship. even with having family members die I have never seen a dead body.IT freaked me out
. When she passed we had to call the hospice nurse and then he came and pronounced her dead. He didnt get to my house till 10:50pm. It was so hard. I had so manny people in and out of my house that day there for suppport I dont even know how many times I cried that day. It was rough and I am just happy that I had my family there, my mom and dad,my brother,my sister and my niece were all at my house till 2am. I had to call them and tell them she passed and I was so upset I couldnt even talk. I couldnt get the words out. but they came and supported me and it made me really see that they really did care even though i have been doubting them this whole time.
Today we went and made funeral arrangements.... She is being cremated which was her wishes and we picked out a nice urn and everything. We are having a memorial service on Tuesday for her. That is the hard part. i know I am gonna cry all day. I have to be strong for my husband and his little brother and sister. here is a link to her obituary if youd like to read it.
