My daughter is getting married next week on 8th of Sept. She just recently found out she is pregnant as well. We are all very happy about it too.
Well, I just found out that my father in law has liver cancer. He is in the hospital right now geting his liver drained from all of the toxins. He does not have much more time on this earth. The years of daily beer and scotch drinking has taken it's toll.
My 54 year old husband has been in a nursing home for about 5 years and I don't know how or when I am going to tell him about his dad. Should I wait until after the wedding or should I tell him right away? I have no idea how he is going to react to all of this. The last time I visited I did all the talking and he did not react whatsoever towards me. He was just interested on getting to the dining room to eat. Sometimes, I can go there and he talks up a blue streak and then other times he says nothing. Sometimes, he does not want to get out of bed to visit. So, I have no idea how to go about all of this. I guess I will have to play it by ear.
Just too much going on.
