Hiya Jo! Thanks for the update. I just wanted to say donèt be so hard on yourself. I find you very brave and I really admire how you are handling this. Dealing with this kind of thing is really difficult and it is normal to feel bad sometimes. But all in all you have a good heart and are doing very well it seems to me thinking of other so you should be prous of yourself. Hang in there and please feel free to come write to us anytime we are here for you.My dad has had to get operations and chemo and all that and I know how scary it can all be. He is fortunetely doing well now and I can only imagine what you and your family are going through but my thoughts are with you. -Diva

Jo, Thanks for the update about your trip to the hospital, we are happy to hear that you appointment went well. The feelings that you are experiencing about your father in law are normal. It is scary to see someone in that condition. You are doing very well at being strong for your husband. Keep working on some coping mecanisms to help with your visits.

Hi Guys, I have posted a lot about this in the past few weeks, my Husbands dad has Cancer for the 2nd time in less than a year unfortunetly there is nothing they can do form him and he is on drip all the time for pain a home, I had a bit of a panic today my head went a bit funny and then I just felt like I was someehere else could even picture it and felt weak, tired, starry eyed, not with it, could feel my arms and legs and felt like my hands would'nt work. I have to be strong form my Husband as this is s very tough time for them, and if I cannot handle it myself without freaking out and feeling funny how and I going to be strong for him, this is really bothering me as I get really shaky seeing my Husbands Dad like that. On another note I had a Hospital Appointment for my eye the other day I was really nervous felt sick, was worried I would have to have drops in my eyes and that they would make me feel faint and funny but I did'nt and the appointment went fine I have a Holmes Aides Pupil basically carn't figure out what to do between light and dark so dilates big a lot of the time.
