Thinking Outloud

Last night my mother in law passed away from cancer.  So it’s pretty sad at our house today.  She was diagnosed with stomach cancer two years ago.  She fought so hard to get better, but finally in the end she just didn’t have any more fight left in her.  Although it is a very sad time in our lives right now, the sense of relief of knowing that she isn’t suffering any more and that she is now in peace in very present.  We did not tell the kids yet.  We let them go to school this morning and when they get home this afternoon I will have to tell them.  I have to say that I’m not looking forward to this at all as they are still so small and don’t really understand the concept of death and they were very close to grammie.  But, it’s something that needs to be done and I’m sure that somehow we will all get through this.
