    Just wanted to let you know....

    Just wanted to let you know that I may not be here very often in the next week or so.

    Got a phone call this morning and my brother-in-law passed away this morning. He was 71 yrs old and was healthy up until about a week ago. He was more like a real brother to me over all the many years I have known this wonderful man.

    My sister (my only sibling) is not well at all. She is also 71 yrs old. They are not real sure yet what the problem is but part of it is Dementia, severe weight lost and a few other things. My son who is about 40 miles east of me is coming over to get me and take me to see my Sis. She lives about 50 miles north of me. He said he did not want me going alone.

    Wayne is still in either Kentucky or Tennessee and on the way home. I have not told him yet as I dont want him upset while driving. I will tell him tonight and hope he forgives me for not telling him right away but I want him to come home safely.

    Ok... crying here and cant see to type. Gonna call Laura.

    OH sweetheart - {{{{hugs}}}} many times over! I am glad your son is going with you.

    I had a sister who had a chronic illness and the last couple of years she was alive she was present only inside herself...could not communicate in any way.

    Hug your sister, tell her anything you want, she will hear you.

    More hugs...
