Crap weekend for me
My wifes mother fell yesterday and she had to cancel her favorite dog show trip of the year. No help from her brother or sister.
 Maureen is staying at her moms,because no care givers want to work the weekend,which my wife pays for.

I'm sorry to hear about your mother in law. I hope she will be OK. It really stinks that your wife has to be the only one who will help. Let us know how things turn out.

Just makes me mad Maureen has to do it all,and it's ruining her health too. Hopefully her mother won't suffer much longer....

This is all new to me,as both my father and step father died suddenly.My mother is now 86 and she can still kick my butt. Heck,when I was down Wednesday,she helped me load her lawnmower into my car.In a way I think my wife is a little jealous of the way my mom is.

My mom lives alone,and the only thing I really have to do for her is general upkeep on the outside of her home and cut the grass. My sister takes her places as she gave up driving a few years back. As you might guess,she drove a Chrysler.

We spent close to 15 years taking care of Lynda's parents. Her mother had emphysema and stomach problems, very frail. Her father developed alzheimers during that time. We were raising two young kids at the time. Her older sister was too busy with her teenage girls to help. Her parents are both gone now and we haven't seen or spoken to her sister and brother in-law in years, they only live about 30 minutes from us.

Happy Memorial Day!!Gary so sorry to hear about your Ma in laws spill, hope she will make a speedy recovery. I's raised up a lot by my maternal GP's and was so blessed to be taught the importance of taking care of the ones that took care of me. It was a honor back in 98 when I took care of my Gma while she passed with lung cancer; we had a 7 year old daughter and were young and broke as a joke; no one else much helped in the family...bout the same thing in 04 for my own Ma in law, it was just my husband and daughter...managin meds, gettin them to chemo, changin butts, callin the preacher n sayin thanks n finally g'bye...what an honor, however emotionally and physically taxing those hours I spent returning the favor of unconditional love & loyalty are the best investment I ever made. My girl was there too, we've instilled this forgotten concept of loyalty too but we had a 2nd one just for backup...lol...ow they are gone and I have those sweet sweet memories that the ones that never came will never have the joy of having, really sad for them.....hang in there, ya'll are in my prayers.
Crystal
