[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 441545, member: 2211"] [COLOR=#000080][SIZE=2] I think this is what we all believe as well. It's very sad, but my father in law lived his life in his own way on his own terms and I think he had a very good time. I don't begrudge him but I think his kids might on some level. I know H's mom does. She said some odd things the other day to H when he spoke with her. Like I said, I am wondering what will happen with her after father in law passes. She prefers H's company so I hope she doesn't have designs on moving up near us. Not that I would protest loudly, but I have enough on my plate with my own mother and H doesn't usually make a lot of time for anything other than work. I'm trying not to think that far ahead. But yes, from what I've read and heard, pancreatic cancer is not a cancer that is detected early and because of that, it's usually not a good prognosis. DDD, when my dad was being treated for his cancer, and then later on with hospice, he and my mom were able to stay in a facility attached to the treatment center for a very small nominal fee - it was a Godsend, especially for my mom in terms of support and having her many questions answered. They even answered questions she hadn't thought of asking yet! When we visited my parents while he was there, they seemed to be doing better than when they were at home alone and isolated. You know, my mom doesn't even remember that time at all anymore - I can't decide if that's sad or a blessing. [/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
