My husband's grandmother is dying. She's been fighting (valiantly and unflinchingly) a brain tumor for a year now, and while it was getting smaller, in the past few weeks, it has returned with a vengeance. It has doubled in size, and is causing her a lot of confusion. well, she fell yesterday, and broke her hip and femur. They're doing surgery tonight or tomorrow morning, because it is so excruciating, but regardless of the surgery, are only giving her 6-8 weeks more. We won't be able to see her, since they live too far away, and we won't be able to go to the funeral for the same reason. i am just heartsick, she is the nicest lady. she is so, NICE. she loves my kids, and is adorable, and sweet. Always something nice to say.. i wish she'd been MY grandma (mine is a cranky old cuss), and I am just so sad. prayers please for a peaceful, painless crossing, and for us all. thank you.
