Mother In Law, passed away this morning.......
The wife spoke with her Mom last night on the phone, and everything seemed 'good'. Nothing sounded abnormal.
0720 this morning, I get a text from the wife (in all caps), "CALL ME NOW!" I did. M-I-L wasn't "doing well at all". She was transported to Methodist Hospital In Rochester, MN (part of the Mayo Clinic). Before my wife, and her brother (and his wife, that live 6-7 places down the street from us), can get to Rochester, she's 'gone' (2 1/2 hour drive due to road construction & detours). Her funeral is Thursday. It's been a f***ed up week so far! My wife is a 'wreck'. My daughter is even worse. My son, was conspicuously 'quiet'. I spoke with both my son & daughter this evening, and while the news hits hard, they seem to be doing well. My wife on the other hand.......not so much. I'm actually very pissed at myself. I offered 3 weeks ago, to take my wife to see her Mom. She was 'all for it', until that Sunday came, and then she didn't 'feel like it'. I should've insisted/put her ass in the pickup, and took her to see her Mom! It's gonna be a tough week! There ain't no doubt about that! |

I feel for you not being able to move her to see her mother one last time. If you could not force her, you could not force her. It is most likely better that you did not.
You respected her in a critical moment. Remember that. The next week is going to be rough. Sorry about that.

Don’t beat yourself up, Hunter, just continue to support and care for your wife in her grief.
