[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You will most likely benefit when your own children treat you with the same loving care, concern and attention that you and your husband have given to his mother. Your children are benefiting more from learning this example than suffering any negative stress related to it.[/quote] This. You may be doing this already, but try to involve your kids with visits to see their grandmother. Talk to them about what you are doing and why. See, if your husband is agreeable, if the two of you or the whole family can get away for a weekend or a week. Ask the other family to be there for her when you do this. Unfortunately my husband got really impatient with me over the time spent with my mom. He insisted we go away and then discouraged me from returning early when I got a call from hospice. I was on the beltway when my mom passed. [/quote]
