Here we are again

My mother-in-law went in to the hospital for a rather simple procedure on Thursday, and may not wake up. Her breast cancer re-occurred, and metastasized to her lungs. She is 2 hours away, so I’ve been driving back and forth and my husband has been staying there on and off.

We just went through this with my dad less than 2 years ago.

I’m pretty tired right now, and of course, everyone is devastated.

We are waiting to see if she gets off the vent and has a little time before the end or not…

In the meantime, my kids are crushed. I’ll let you know what happens. I’m tired.

Unless she passes away in the next two days, I’m heading for Cleveland by myself on Tuesday. I thought about canceling the appointment, but the stress is making my symptoms much worse so it seems like it might be a good time to be evaluated, and my husband wants me to try and go ahead if I can make the drive myself.

Sometimes life sucks.
