[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Furious" is not an appropriate response either. End of life is hard, watching suffering, and wanting to have hope -- we all need to extend each other grace. Decisions are not perfect. Assume good intent. He will die soon enough. In no case are things manage with perfection. Re: "furious". avoid extremes of emotional reactions, FIL would also not want that. You need to honor your FIL in that - this was a woman he loved. FIL would not want you to be cruel when unnecessary, even if her actions aren't perfect.[/quote] Oh, please, we are all allowed to express emotions in our own homes. He has been nothing but polite and helpful to his father‘s wife every step of this journey. There is plenty of “grace“ being displayed here. You let me know how you feel when you see your parent being yelled at and berated for things like not replacing the coffee pot or for letting the dog out when your parent is no longer capable of functioning.[/quote]
