Sue, Oh my goodness. You certainly have alot on you at this time. God bless

you. I don't think we've ever chatted online here but my heart hurt for you as

you wrote to . I'm so glad you shared. I will pray for you and your

family with the responsibility you now have added with your husband's brother.

I would think it would be difficult to be in the house and going through her

treasures without her. At the same time, I can't help but think how beautiful

it is to keep the house going on in your in-law's honor. A house that was

filled with such goodness, should be filled with life. New happy memories and

holiday good times and the ability to look back and laugh at the thoughts of

those precious moments shared with those now crossed over.

Enjoy your home. I'm sure your mother-in-law felt so safe knowing you would

be the one taking care of everything.

Nice to meet you...

:-)

, I thought of you all day today. Now I know why. I agree with

Melinda that the service sounds just like it should have been. Your mother would

have been pleased. How is holding up?

Please know you can post anytime because we (or many of us personally know) what

that type of loss is. Now that things are settled (so to speak) it may seem

everyone has forgotten and that is when I felt alone. I felt like, " Okay I was a

good daughter (to my dad) and I took care of everything (helped my mother) and I

did well. Now he should come home and we get back to life as it was.

I'm not trying to prolong the grieving but it takes time and some people think

one should be back to " normal " much sooner than is reasonable. I just don't want

you to think you can't express those feelings if you need to.

Reach out if needed ..we're here.

With Love,

The Family <neilmeltx@...> wrote:

Thanks for sharing with us, . That's just what a funeral service should be,

Love and continued prayers for you,

[LinktoGod] Re:Please pray

I haven't been on this in so long, but have occasionally checked the requests.

I am soooo sorry to hear of your loss, coupled with the holidays,and your

son going back to training- I will hold you up to the Heavenly Father and ask

Him to comfort you and the whole family. Dear dear Rashelle...what a sweet and

beautiful note your wrote..so full of love and compassion and care...and i loved

your poem. It comforted my heart also.

I recently lost my mother in law on Sept 22 and have been remodeling the house

she lived in so we could move from our condo to the house. It has taken me weeks

just to clean out all she had 'gathered' through her 90 years. But I am feeling

such grief... since she and my father in law were more like parents to me in

some ways than my own. His father passed 4 years ago..they left behind his

sister (70) , who is not emotionally stable, and his brother who is 65 and has

lived with the parents since his ! 20's...he is paranoid schitzophrenic and so

now my husband is in charge of his care. ..we placed him in a nearby high

quality Assisted Living. All this to say that my life has completely changed in

so many ways since her death, and I ache over them...they were so encouraging to

me and my husband.

anyway..I want you to know, that as I am grieving, I will now remember you

and your family...

with love, Sue
