out of our lives. My mother-in-law, Jo, passed away yesterday afternoon. She died peacefully in her sleep. We are grateful that she didn't suffer a lingering and painful death but we're still struggling to accept that she's gone and that we won't see her again. I don't know how to say all that is in my mind and heart right now, as the tears are too near the surface. I want to scream and rail at something...god? fate? the universe?..I don't know. I want answers to unanswerable questions but I know they don't exist and so yet again I am faced with having to accept what is unacceptable.
I do know that this will pass and we will adjust to the loss, it just takes time and meanwhile it helps to vent some of my feelings. I appreciate all of the support that we've received from our friends here; it has meant a great deal.
