    Oh, Anna, my heart is just aching for you. Everyone here has given such wounderful advice and offered up such warm kindness and I couldn't say it any better. Please know that we all care and are here for you. Come and talk to us anytime you feel you need to. I really really do care and I'm a good listener. Feel free to pm me anytime if you need to. I really mean that.

    You and yours will be on my prayer list this evening.

    Hugs....Robin

    Dearest Anna... I'm so so sorry that you and Mark are going through this.

    I can't possibly find words that would fix this all for you, but I do want you to know that we love you and any time you feel the need to talk... just talk away!

    Give those two sweet Labby boys hugs from me.. I know that'd make me feel good!

    Oh Anna. I just read this now. I can't imagine the pain you are going through right now. It is ever so difficult to see a loved one suffer. Your mother-in-law, family, and of course youself, are in my prayers. If you need to talk, we are always here for you. May God make things easy for your MIL, and entire family.

    I apologize firstly for not reading this until now, and secondly for not having the words to bring you comfort at this difficult time. Your mother-in-law looks like a very sweet and caring person. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

    Anna, I'm so very sorry to hear what you're going though. I wish I could say something to help. I know what a hard time it is for you and Mark, but at least you have each other.

    Knowing you have done everything you can for your mother in law, will hopefully be a comfort to you and Mark - I know it was for me.

    Your mother in law looks like a very sweet and loving lady, I will keep her in my thoughts and hope she won't suffer much.

    Anna, talk about this as much as you need, in my experience it helps to get it out, and we're all here for you!

    Hugs to you!

    There are no words that can make the pain go away, but I know that just knowing that people can relate and that they are praying for you too really does help. I lost my grandfather to a stroke three days after Christmas almost three years ago. He seemed to be improving and then one night he was gone. I didn't even get to say goodbye because I was out of town. . It's hard, but there are lots of PT prayers on the way for you and God always knows what is best!

    I'll be praying for you!

    Your mother in law looks like such a dear, sweet lady .... I am so very sorry to hear of her suffering.

    I don't have the words to make things better either, but please know that you are in my thoughts, and I pray that the Lord will end her suffering in a peaceful manner and that HE will comfort yours and Mark's hearts!

    I just thought I would give you an update. Mom is back in the hospital for pain management. We spent a lot of time with her last night and this morning, and are expecting to go back this evening after Mark is out of work.

    None of us really expects that she will be home again, and she told us her goodbye's last night. As of this afternoon, she is still clinging onto life, but barely.

    Thank you so much for the prayers, good thoughts and wishes, and hugs. They mean so much to me!

    I'm so very sorry about this Cookiebaker. Just recently I lost my cousin to brain cancer and watching her "go" was not easy. Now is the time to tell her all the things you've wanted to. The fact that she has said her "good-byes" is an indication that she's ready to go. I remember after my father died I was told that sometimes the survivors have to give the patient permission to go and that they hang on because they love the survivors so much and want to know that they are going to be OK.

    Sending big big {{{{{HUGS}}}}} to you and Mark and the rest of the family. Sending prayers too for a peaceful passing.
