Or maybe it's all connected.
My father in law's just been brought to the hospital with what looks to be a mild heart attack. He's in an assisted living facility six hours from here, and I know my husband wants to be with him. Whether his work will cooperate or not is another story.
:(

I am one of those annoying people who think that things happen for a reason - not to make light of your situation at all. I am terribly sorry about what's been happening for you these past months. The reasons for what happens are not usually clear.I also believe that you are a remarkably resilient and capable woman. Have faith that your family will overcome this hardship as well.

I hope your father-in-law gets better soon.
And I'm so sorry it's pouring. You deserve some sunshine.

I hope your father-in-law is OK and I hope your husband's work lets him have some time off.
Sorry things are so rough for you right now. You sure deserve a break.
Just think, since so many bad things are happening, something really really good is probably in the works. ;-)
What goes up must come down and vice versa!

I'm so very sorry for your and your husband's loss. I know this will be an extremely difficult time for you. My father-in-law died in 1998 from cancer but we watched him suffer for over a year. Sometimes I believe things happen for a reason. Perhaps your father-in-law would've been very unhappy in an assisted living home?
Hang in there, Dinah. You've been through so much but I also think you will pull through fine. We really need you here...please keep posting and let us know how you're doing.

I'm asking God in my prayers to give you more strength for the more burdens He's having you bear.
I know He will, even though I/you/we don't always feel it at first.
I also cry (literally) to Him to ask Why does Dinah have to bear so much? That one, He may not answer, I know that. Often we aren't given that.
But God loves you, Dinah. If I didn't know that, I wouldn't be able to go on.
(((Dinah and family)))
I know this man was dear to you especially, as FIL's go, and with your Dad's passing just last year, another dog then this...OUCH!!!
Hope you can hug your son and hubbie and dogs close....
We are all thinking of you constantly.
