I read you just lost your son-in-law to an accident.

I am so sorry for your loss.... <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" />

Thanks Pep.
It still seems like just a bad nightmare.
The call from my daughter at midnight and her voice in a soft whisper: "Mike was in an accident on his way to work."....Me: "Is he going to be OK?"....Her: "No Mom and then the sobs."

If ever there was a happy marriage and family it was theirs...Such a love for one another (married 13 years) with 3 beautiful children, ages 8 wks. to 5 years.)

We are all still in a daze...she doesn't want to be alone and people are there at her house ALL THE TIME...The funeral was BIG...he had so many friends....was so loved by everyone.

I heard her say once..."why couldn't he have been a bad husband, a bad dad, so I wouldn't miss him so much".....Of course, that was her grief talking...she wouldn't have wanted him any other way..
He always said he was in 'heaven' when he was playing with his 2 girls and new baby boy.

But life goes on...sorrows come and joys will come and we all just have to do the best we can...whether it is here at MB with cheating spouses or losing loved ones....
EMOTIONAL PAIN HURTS!
Again, Pep, thanks for your caring.
Love, Julie <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Blessedtime -

I'm very sorry to hear about your son-in-law. My prayers are with your daughter and family.

Sometimes folks here think they would rather their partner be dead. But in reality we all know that would be much more painful.
