Oh man, I do feel for you. That is tough. Maybe you can just visit her by yourself? It is tough, I know.
Thank you, JJJ; I appreciate you even listening to the story...:wave:
Indeed, it seems the only way I can see her or speak to her would be alone -- my wife routinely tells me she doesn't care if I talk to her, but she won't, yet the thing is when I speak to her, she merely tries to tell me everything that's wrong with my wife...what I need to do to "correct" certain situations...ask me over and over and over why she won't talk to her...ask me to lend money for a gambling addiction or to pay some of her utility bills...oh, you don't know the half of it...:rolleyesno:
She's in her 80s and does not look like it, AT ALL -- she still drives a car and has all her marbles, and there's nothing really wrong with her. I know one day I am going to have to face bad news with regard to her, but I just can't deal with it right now...:rolleyesno:
Sorry to hear of your dad's passing. My deepest condolences. These things one can never prepare for.
Thank you, my friend; well, his passing wasn't really "unexpected"...what had happened was, he went in for heart surgery and after the procedure -- which went well -- he developed ALL sorts of complications that lead to his needing to be put on life support when organ after organ kept shutting down....I blame the medical field in our state for the problems he encountered, as the medical here is AWFUL...but eventually the complications got too complex and he passed in an ICU unit...
Ironically, though, that is where I met my wife -- she too was waiting for her father to come out of the SAME heart procedure and we simply developed a co-dependent bond that lead to where we are now. Funny how life works, huh? Her dad ended up pulling through the surgery and doing okay -- but he passed away a year or so ago to bad lung cancer...even more ironic, we were both from the same state originally, now living in a new one where we met at the hospital...
