[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 441526, member: 6705"] Jo, Your father in law getting his affairs in order is a big clue about what [I]he [/I]thinks and feels. My parents got all their stuff in order about 7.5 years ago, after Grandpa passed away. Mom is an only child, as am I - and she did not want me to have to go through what she did. Mom is now a young 63. However, after all the stuff Mom had to take care of - between March of 2003 when Grandpa passed and December 2004 when Grandma passed - was nuts. I'm glad she had my Dad to help. Grandma was not in very good health, even before Grandpa got really sick at the end. A lot of it had to do with her drinking earlier in life. However - in 2002 they had moved to an assisted-living facility, so when Grandpa passed, she wasn't all alone. But she missed him very badly. Very, very badly. I think perhaps this had something to do with how quickly she went, once they found the cancer. I'm not going to tell you not to worry about mother in law. Clearly, you have reason to. But there are options. [/QUOTE]
