I would like to ask that you all say a prayer for my mother in law....She has been a second Mom to me.....
As most of you know , We have moved here to help care for my Wife's mother as she is older and now needs help...She is the sweetest woman you would ever meet....I mean that ...
But her age is getting the best of her, and this is breaking my Wife's heart, and Mine ....
Today, She told my wife that she wanted to talk to her, and my wife went in and her Mom, said that she talked to the family and they wanted to "pay" us for helping out here, and tried to hand my wife an imaginary check , well, Heather, My wife, said, what are you talking about....her Mom got embarrassed and swore that she must have dropped it or lost it....20 minutes later called her back in and said that she found the "check" and once again , handed her an imaginary check, that wasn't there ..My wife assured her that everything was fine, Well, her Mom started to cry wanting her to take "this check" , and of course , My wife started to cry as well, she pretended to "take" the check , and thanked her Mom for it.....30 minutes later , her Mom came out of her room and said that My wife forgot the "check" and handed her , once again, a pretend check..... Well , My wife burst into tears....and what can I do but comfort her the best that I can ....She ( Mom ) is 85 yrs old , and we try and do whatever we can to care for her....I know that this is a part of life with many families....and well, it's what we are going through....Please keep my family in your prayers tonight .....God Bless....
