My mother in law is dying. We found out this morning and have been with her at the hospital for the last 16 hours.
She fell and broke a hip last week, and the surgery to fix her exacerbated some long-time problems with her liver and kidneys.
I know this perhaps isn't the place to beg for prayer, but I have few places to turn and, though I am not myself religious, in the worst of moments, we reach for any hand we can.
My father in law will be coming to live with us afterwards, which will both be a pleasure and add strain to us financially. He and my wife will probably have to make the most terrible decision any of us could imagine tomorrow.
If you are so inclined, please offer a prayer that she suffer as little as possible, and that we pull together as much as is possible, or at least as much as we can.
Thank you, and I hope you and your families are all well tonight,
