We were the lucky ones! My wife's a nurse and her mothers ANGEL! It was my wife and children and I, that spent this final year with her. She knew she was loved dearly and she loved my family! Heck, I have to say she was better to them, then my mom.....

So my wifes knows SHE did everything in her power to give my MIL nothing but the best care and love she could....Her sibling can not say the same. ( a can O worms). So, I'm typing through my tears and may not jump back on for a while but Razzor my sincere thanks goes to you for those kind words!!!

I am joining that list with you. I do watch college sports, NHL, and golf. I still watch some auto racing.

My condolences DR. Stay strong for your wife, she needs it. We lost my mom to that horrible disease two years ago. I have severed all ties and communication with my sister as a result (long ugly story). Your MIL is in peace now and not suffering.
