[quote=Anonymous]My FIL is dying. He's been in decline all summer. The end is close and DH is there for a week straight now, possibly to be extended. They live about an hour flight away (6 hr drive or so). I'm just back from taking our two children to visit for the weekend and it is just so, so hard and sad. MIL trying to make the best of it and talking cheerily about FIL coming home (in-home hospice). DH trying so hard to be supportive but hating every minute of his long days in the nursing home visiting his dad. DD, 3, weeping for daddy when we have to leave and he stays, and both of them so tired they can barely keep their eyes open (naps are in short supply when we're gone, and what can I say? it really might be the last time they see him). And none of the truly hard part as hit yet. It's just so hard on everyone.[/quote]
