Many, many thanks for all the emails I have received asking how my Mother-in-Law is. Shortly after the wedding on a visit back to Wales we realised that it was impossible for my SIL (although she very much wanted to) to provide the level of nursing that was needed due to her own health problems. My MIL at that stage needed 24/7 nursing.
We have wanted my MIL to live with us for sometime but she wanted to remain in her own home to the end. Due to the distance involved we could not provide her with the care needed so we brought her down to us.
We quickly adapted a downstairs room into "hospital".
Over the last few weeks it has been a roller coaster and we have thought on several occasions that she would not last the day. I spent two weeks in a chair by her bed and became exhausted myself.
My SIL is now staying with us until the end and we are sharing the nursing (with the support of the doctors, district nurses and McMillam nurses) which is much easier. Today is a good day and the adjustment on Wednesday to her morphine has brought some relief from the pain.
I have not been able to pick up a needle either with time or inclination.
On a positive note Chris and Kate are expecting and we should become grandparents around 27th December.
Please pray for Winnie and us.

First I will say congratulations to Chris and Kate, and you and your husband becoming grandparents.
I am sorry your MIL continues to do poorly. The morphine will help her so much. So good to be with family at this time. Hang in there Nicola. I am praying for all of you. ♥

Oh Nicola. Both sadness and joy indeed. I've been wondering how you and your MIL and newlyweds were doing. It's good to see a post from you, but so sad to hear about your MIL and all the goings on. I will be sending prayers and good thoughts for you, your MIL, the newlyweds and their future bundle of joy, and your whole family. Hang in there and remember to take care of yourself and not overdo again. Good that your SIL and others are there to help with the nursing. Hugs.
I've been thinking about you, Nicola, and missing your posts. I'm so glad your MIL has a loving family to be with her at this time. She couldn't be in a more lovely place. I do hope the morphine continues to manage her pain.
