Do you live close to his family?
The whole family is all within 10-30 minutes from each other. My mom just had a meltdown of sorts this coming after her own 4th stage bladder cancer diagnosis, so my sister Phylis is with her now. The youngest sibling Renee, who is the recipient of my late sister Cheryl’s kidney before she died from breast cancer is the one doing all the arrangements. It’s all so sad. There were nine siblings, we are down to seven now. Cheryl was 49 when she passed away, but she saved Renee before that happened as she was perfect match. There is always joy mixed in with the sadness in life I have found. I intend to celebrate Mark’s life rather than mourn it.
Im so happy to hear that you are celebrating life. May you find much joy and laughter in memories! When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be!
Death has no sting for the believers. (Well less anyway)

You are very wise. Prayers for you and your family’s strength. Is your mom getting treatment? I know this is hard for her, you are supposed to die before your children do.
