The NFC B-Day Chat Thread

[JaeG]

Well damn, DH just called to let me know his mother passed away. Her lung cancer moved to her brain and she's been in hospice the past 10 days.

I'm not going to sugar coat it, she was a miserable and mean person who managed to alienate all 4 of her children. But I kept hoping things would improve between her & DH. Now that won't ever happen and it just all seems like such a shame for all involved.

Remember to hug the people you care about, tell them you love them and make any amends needed before it's too late.

Lots of these for you both .

It's so strange. We are used to getting the television alerts as a test...they are for real now.

What are you getting alerts about?

and condolences to @N F C and her DH

at the same time

I’m sorry for you and your husband. One of my brothers had so much hate for my mother that he did not come to say goodbye or forgive or be forgiven. I feel bad for him. Mom made her peace in her heart and forgave him. Life is too short for hate.

Okay just got a text from our daughter. She and our SIL reached home at 6 AM and are now in recovery mode from the drive. I remember when the Princess and I were young enough to do that.

I'm so sorry Debby, please pass on our condolences to your husband

It's a sad situation. But I'm sure your DH will be okay.
You can't miss what you never really had. I've not spoken to any of my 3 siblings in too many years to remember. It just is what it is.
And as Sour likes to remind us, friends are the family we make for ourselves.

@N F C @DobieLover has expressed my thoughts. A loss is a loss. Even the loss of something we never really had. to your husband.

I'm sorry Debby. Even though they weren't speaking I'm sure your DH is affected. to you both

NFC..so sorry!

so sorry for dh

Lots of these for you both .
