in the past 12 days I have lost a niece to a horrific bike accident, My Mother was admitted to a hospital and within four days my sister and I had to find an assisted living home for her. We barely got Mom settled then we get a call that my Mother in law has had a stroke and we are now having to put her in HOSPICE care. She is not expected to last the week. What he freakin hell is going on? Too much in a short period of time

It's like when it rains it pours sad and it is too much to have to go through.. just one of these things would break your heart ... but you are strong and you are taking care of the people you love the best that you can ..and i know they love you for it and would be lost without you ... i have only been through a glimpse of what you are going through and do not know that i could hold a candle to you my lady .. i am glad you have family there with you to help and stand by your side .. I am praying for you and for your family ...hold on to each other emotion_bigheart ( hugs) wish I could help sad

Thank you. I have great support and everything that needs taken care of is getting done. It is just a lot all at the same time with no breaks in between and I am still taking care of my clients as well. We will get through this time.

Thank you my friend. We already had MIL's final arrangements done and paid for before she went in to assisted living and know her requests so we are prepared. I just needed to blow off some steam and rant for a bit. Thanks for listening.

I am lucky to be a friend smile and you know I am here( or around) for you to vent on/with anytime you need me for sure ... Just remember to take the time to breathe when it feels overwhelming ,it does help ... i hope bear is ok .. I was not there when my grandma passed and i think God that she had a lot of the family there on her last day ,she got to have them in her room because she had been put on Hospice ..even tho she was on a lot of pain meds i feel like she knew they where all there with her she was responding to them as they held her and spoke to her .. How is your niece at this point ??? and your kids , how are they with all this going on ???

My niece did not survive the bike accident. She was hit from behind and pushed in to oncoming traffic. MIL has been unconscious for the past three days. She will be transported to Hospice care Saturday. Bear is driving up to pick up her siblings so they can say good bye. Busy phone day organizing nurses, transportation and family. All arrangements are set. I have kept the kids up to speed on what's going on. They are a little surprised at how fast things are happening We have dinner reservations with friends Sat night taking a ferry to our favorite restaurant

I am sorry I misread that first post about your niece passing ...and I am sorry she is gone . i wish there was something we could do to change things and saying I am sorry just does not feel like its enough ( i have always felt that way ) but what do we do ? what feels right ? we are left with this big hole in our hearts and it never really goes away ..right ? Just know we care for you and your family and we are here for you .. you are probably will need some time alone after everything settles down just to process everything and destress ... please be safe and take care of yourself too my friend heart and I hope bear has a safe trip picking them up ...

Thank you for your support. It was a bit overwhelming at first now it is just constant phone calls organizing everything and taking care of my Mom's apt. I really appreciate the good wishes.

Don't worry about the confusion. It was an easy mistake. There is so much to do I haven't had time to think which is a good thing I guess. I appreciate all the support and good wishes. Thank you.
