I don't know how much my heart can take! My father in law is on life support and his wishes were not to be kept alive on machines. He is all alone in there. Nobody wants anything to do with him. He has burned to many bridges and it's totally understandable why they feel the way the feel. But he is dying alone and it's a bit much form me to take. I am the only one who has gone to see him and I am not next of kid or even blood related so I can't do anything about it. I talked to my husband and he is going to sign papers today to turn the machines off. But I am just so sadden that he has nobody. |
That is soo sad ! |
That is a really tough situation. My heart goes out to you and all that you are trying to do. You are in my prayers. :girl_hug: |
Oh I'm so sorry Monica! This must be very hard for you! I will have your family and your father in law in my thoughts and prayers. :( |
I am so so sorry for you. I will pray for you and your husband during this very difficult time. |
thank you. Believe me you guys have kept me sane these last 2 months. I am so greatfull for this site. I find so much joy reading, looking at pictures, laughing and even crying. You all are so wonderful! |
Such a sad situation. You have a compassionate heart and can put yourself in the other person shoes..none of us should get what we deserve, please give me mercy and grace. Best wishes |
oh my, i will pray that the right decision will be made,, you will be in my thoughts and prayers.. you are very kind.. |
You have a good heart... Your post touched me. My grandfather recently passed away, after living with us for over 13 years. I was VERY close to him. While in the hospital, we were reading the Bible with him, just talking to him about memories and things of the sort, in his final hours. The nurses brought up how many patients don't have family there to do these things. It is admirable that you are able to look past or over the things that he may have done. Only a few things matter at this stage in his life. I will pray for you both...and I mean it :) |
I am trying to forgive here. He had been staying her since Feb. And it has been an nighmare! I never had the heart to toss him out with no place to go. Meanwhile I hated him more and more for the kind of person he was. He just did not care about the people who tried to help him or to take care of himself to live and be happy. But there is a that part of me too that feels sorry for him. He is passing unloved and alone. And that's so very hard for me. |
It is so sad , you and your husband are in my thoughts and prayers . |
it shows, your the better person so be there for him |
He does have someone....he has you and that's saying a whole lot. I'm sorry you're all going thru this - I honestly think when someone is dying that is the best time to put all ill feelings in the past and try to be there for them...but we can't force people. Be strong Monica.....I'm so sorry. |

My prayers are with you. You are doing the right thing. You will have no regrets. My father in law passed away 11/7 and I was his primary caregiver for the past 14 months and when I took him to the hospital on the 6th they said he was stable and the next morning I got the call he had just passed away. I felt so bad that we wern't with him but we didn't know. But I have no regrets because I treated him the same way I treat my own elderly parents and I know his last year here with us made him happy. |
