We are waiting for THE call on my mother-in-law. I'm helping my wife through this. Mom's not in any pain but failing quickly. Prayers for Irene and my wife Jane are welcome.
Prayers for you all. God bless
I pray your wife and family handles this with faith and grace as her mother receives God's final blessing.
Prayers for Irene and her mother.
I am currently saying goodbye to my mother, named Irene, who died early yesterday...seems like a week. She had just turned 90.
I pray for a peaceful passing for your Irene, if indeed it is her time. I will also share my personal experience of being disappointed in myself about how I have dealt with aspects of my grief. It wasn’t so much what I was saying, but bad thoughts that were way out of line.
I am finding that telling it to someone and making amends as needed got that off my conscience.
fwiw - and maybe tmi about the state of my own heart.
I do pray that God sends the right people at the right time to assist you in the days to come. That is how the God I try to know and serve seems to work in my life. I am mostly too dull and distracted to keep that in the front of my mind.
Our prayers for your family. At her age, it would appear your mother-in-law has lived a long life and the Lord is calling her home. What ever happens, we wish your family God blessing as you go through the inevitable process we all anticipate in our lifetimes.

I am sorry about your mom and understand the challenge. I lost my husband five years ago, an honest loving, giving man and a wonderful father! And I was angry... Why him, when criminals run free??? In the end the answer was he was needed for a greater purpose but that did not help at the time. Stay strong and forgive yourself for your thoughts, they will one day make you stronger somehow...
Prayers ((((Hugs))))
Prayers have been sent for you and your family.
Prayers Up^
Brief update Irene holding her own just got call from doctor the dooms day clock has turned back a bit. The small but real up turn came JUST AFTER your prayers started pouring God’s love on us. We are very grateful - please keep praying.
Prayers to you and your wife. I went through the exact same thing a few years back with my MIL who was also 92 at the time. It was real hard on my wife... you will be very important in helping her though it all, so stay strong.
