My MIL is dying

Original post by What-Now

She has ovarian cancer and things have been getting worse and worse. She was dancing and having a good time at our wedding in March, and now, 4 months later she is bed ridden and on an oxygen machine. It is so awful to see this happen to a parson. She is a very good, interesting and intelligent woman, I can’t imagine what she is feeling! This morning my DH older brother called from their parent’s apartment and told him he better get there. She has been in pain for some time, but it wasn’t out of control. Now she is in terrible pain. I hope they give her morphine or something! I didn’t wake up from the phone wringing but from DH getting dressed and openign drawers in the bedroom. I asked what’s wrong and he said: My mother is dying.

I wanted to go there with him, but he didn’t want me to, he said he will call me, and even though I wanted to stay home just in case he told me not to. And TOMORROW IS DH BIRTHDAY! What an awful memory it would be for the rest of his life! I am praying the doctors will be able to ease her pain!!!!!! I am also praying that nothing awful happens on his Birthday! GOD, I hope it’s not awful of me to think that, but that would be such a terrible thing to live with for my DH! Imaging if something like that happens on your Birthday! I am praying for the best is there is such a thing at this point! Thank you for reading this! I know it doesn’t make much sense!

Re: My MIL is dying

So sorry. I have to say that I'm jealous though that you at least got to know your MIL. My FH's mom passed away from ovarian cancer a few years ago which was before I met FH. Everyone said that she was the sweetest person. It pains me that I never got to meet her....

to your DH

Edited to say that I hope my jealousy comment didn't sound disrespectful! I was just trying to say that you at least will have fond memories of her......

I wanted to send out some major hugs - this stuff is horrible to go through

I'm happy to hear though that she could celebrate your wedding with you. Those memories will be cherished forever.
