MIL has passed on

Peace to all your family.  I certainly want to go in my sleep when the time comes.  Drive safely.

You are still in my prayers, safe travels.

We spent 34 hours in the car getting here. 

I'm pretty sure that if I had to spend 34 hours in the car with DH, they'd need to make it a double service. I can't imagine driving that long for something fun, and this sure wasn't a fun trip for you guys. I hope the service goes well. (((HUGS))) to all of you.

(((hugs)))

 It sounds like she had a very peaceful passing and I'm glad to hear that she looked restful as well. *hugs* to you and your family.

 Hugs, my thoughts are with you.

Yeterday was very rough for DH because we had the internment.  Per her specific instructions there was no funeral, no graveside service, however, we did have a deacon from th Church say a blessing and prayers.  More than she wanted I'm sure, but less than DH wanted to do.  I have to say that for the first time in many years, we were able to share a trip with MIL that wasn't unpleasant due to her griping about everything, or needing a bathroom stop....NOW.  Her remains traveled in the backseat from ME to NH along with me and Todds ex.  To make this trip even wierder, we stopped for a few hours sleep very early this morning at the home of my exes ex....who isn't even home, but rather in NY City....where we dropped DS earlier in the evening.  I'm probably confusing everyone, but honestly, I'm not on drugs....this all happened.

This has been a very difficult trip, and DH is having a hard time, but, one day at a time.  I want to thank you all for your thoughts and prayers through the last several days and months.  We are 15-16 hours from home, and I can't wait to be there....cramped and crowded as it is, it's still home!

Glad you're almost home Glenda and as strange as your connections sounded, it's really nice that you've got people from the past that are willing to help out. That's pretty special. I'm sorry that Todd's having a hard time but I can completely understand. I hope you'll both take some time to just relax when you get home and he can have the time he needs to process everything that's happened. (((HUGS)))

Glenda, I'm JUST seeing this.  I'm so sorry to hear about your MIL.  Please pass on my condolences to Todd.  ((HUGS))

Glenda, I hope you guys make the final leg home quickly and safely.  Tell Todd I'll be saying a prayer for him to find some comfort and peace.  It's so hard to lose a parent.

Once again, thank you all so very much.  The week from hades has been made all that much easier just knowing that I have you all caring.
