[QUOTE="DDD, post: 445814, member: 35"] Yikes! Take a deep deep breath. Do not talk to brother in law or sister in law about it. Scream into a pillow. For some reason there always seems to be a family loose cannon following a death. If he has a history of doing this...at least it won't be too big a shock. Get as chilled out as possible before sharing this with your husband. With grief comes guilt in many cases. Probably your best bet is to get husband to take x amount of time before responding. Chances are he is going to agree with the idea because (1) like most survivors he is apt to feel guilty for ?? (maybe not visiting enough, maybe not achieving the degree of success that his Dad expected...something) and (2) he is a man. I have never known a man who would admit he couldn't afford something because "real men" have extra bucks and want to share. Double Yikes! I hope you can help him over the hurdles during this difficult time. Meanwhile scream into a pillow! Hugs DDD [/QUOTE]
