Prayers sent. Is she driving alone Doug? That would make the trip all the harder.

The woman was in her mid-90's and was put under hospice care a week or two ago. Her death was not unexpected, but, hey, we wish our parents to live forever.

Both of mine been gone for years, but every now and then I see something I'd like to share with one or the other. Then, I'm like, oh yeah .............

Prayers go out to the entire family. Hopefully things go as smooth as they can for her. It's always rough to loose a family member but when the parents go it's even harder

Prayers sent Doug! Even when expected, their loss is still hard to deal with! My hope is you all can find some peace and comfort at this difficult time!

You have our prayers as well Doug! It's never easy losing a loved one, especially a parent. And make sure to give your wife a big hug when she gets back home... they work wonders as well.

Damn, I fear the day.
Sorry to hear about your mother in-law, I can't imagine what she witnessed in her 90+ yrs.

I truly do not want to live that long.

Praying for your wife's family in their time of grieving, As well as safe travels.

Dan.

My wife kind of has some regrets about not getting there sooner to be with her mom as she passed. In a way, I consider that a blessing. I held my mom's hand as she passed. Glad I was there, but don't wish the experience on anyone.

That's a tough drive Doug. Prayers for peace, comfort and safe travels.
Death is still difficult even when we know their days are numbered.

I went through that with my mother in law just recently, it's life changing.
Not an experience I would recommend if possible. I think everyone has some regrets when a loved one passes, it is only natural to feel that you could've done more, but in reality there is nothing you could do to change the outcome.

I'm not looking forward to it with my folks, that's for damn sure.
 
I am sorry Doug that you are having to go thru this. We recently went thru it with the unexpected loss of my sister in law.

On top of the loss is all the other things you never expect to have to deal with. Good and bad but the paper work for funerals, (luckily for my niece life insurance), closing so many accounts and other stuff.

My wife was there with her sister at her end. She is a nurse and it was at her hospital. I don't think I would handle it so well.

Very sorry to hear that Doug. Prayers to your family.
I also had a bit of guilt when my mother passed. Heard from her care facility that she wasn't doing good. Made the arrangements to go the next morning. She passed peacefully in the night. That evening this was on my shop wall, I think her way of saying things are OK. . .
