One never expects sudden passing of many people we know throughout life. Hope your mother-in-law is a lot better, distance makes one feel helpless and hopeless when miles sit between loved ones who take ill suddenly.
No matter how healthy one keeps oneself, when it's time to go no-one knows, thank goodness.
Thank you! Yes, it is hard being away like that. She is supposed to be home tomorrow, so that is good.
Hopefully no more upsetting news, it has been a rough couple of years, take care.
