Hello,
We learn some weeks ago that my father-in-law had cancer in his lung, leaver, spine and legs... well today more bad news came in, he also have brain tumors...
Everything is going so fast that they are not able to cop with all that. My mother in law is doing everything she can to help him. They have a lot of medical appointement...
Pascal went there with Audrey this past weekend but I did not go 'cause of the pregnancy. It's a long ride and it would not have been safe. I feel really helpless...
I've call an OT close to them and ask for some equipment for them... I feel that my MIL does not like me suggesting things to help... in fact I'm sure she want this all to go away but I'm really afraid it will not.
All this make me really sad. I cannot help and I understand that it's just too much for them and they can just adapt to so much at the time...
I think my better move is to let the OT there do all the job and not told them any advice... in other ends... I know what it is to loose someone from Cancer since my mom died from it when I was twelve... I know some stuff can be prevent to decrease the amount of pain and other complications... but I don't think they are able to listen to all that...
Thank you so much for letting me vent... Cannot really tell that to my dear husband who has to deal with is own emotion with all that!
Well the good news for the day is that my little girl and her father will be home any minutes and I'm so happy I will be able to hug them!
