What a sad day

Aug 31, 2009

My father-in-law passed away this morning in his home with my MIL by his side.  When I had my RNY surgery 12-16-08 he had a major stroke and was never the same after that.  My MIL took care of him at home and refused to put him in a round the clock care facility.  She has been so good and taken wonderful care of him.  I know she will miss him but I also know she is very tired.  He is at peace now and thats what is most important.

I have felt like such a heal this past week.  I am scheduled for Plastics on Sept 3.  I tried to reschedule my surgery for another date.  The PS office told me that it would be November before they could consider rescheduling me.  My job schedule wouldn't allow that.  Plus we wouldn't have a Christmas if I am not getting to work.  I have already had all of my daycare parents find alternate care for the month of September.  So I would hate to disrupt them also.  But my husband, and MIL and the rest of my family are supportive of me doing the surgery as scheduled on Thursday.  The funeral will be late Wednesday afternoon.  So there will be no need for me to reschedule.  I just wish I could get over feeling so guilty.  But I have asked my mom and friends to come in and help care for me some so that my DH can be with his mother as much as possible.  He won't leave me if he doesn't think I'll have someone here.  So that does make me feel better to know he will be ok too.

I am done blogging for now.  I will write after I have new boobies, a flat tummy and uplifted arms!  Wish me luck!
