the day after the house warming I got some sad news


my kids great uncle died..brother of my ex fil,,but he had kept in touch with me..still considered me family, just like fil and his wife


it was a terrible car accident..27 yr old woman, 8 mo pregnant veered over the yellow line head on into his car


he was killed instantly ,his wife is in critical condition

(the woman and her baby ,later delivered by c-section, survived)

very sad

I spoke to ex fil and wife on Sun..I planned to go to the wake which was to Wed,,and they were glad I called and hoped to see me there

(she was going to call me Sat but didn't want to spoil the housewarming..how thoughtful!)

then it got changed to Tues

dil asked me to watch dgds and she and ds would go to the wake

it is a 3 hr trip

but she said it was ok if I decided I wanted /needed to go

spoke to dd and we agreed I should go

 

so dd, Bob and I will go tomorrow..I feel better..

it was real dilema

thanks...it was really an awful thing..such a shock..his wife still critical in the hospital..very sad


it was just coincidence that one of his sons was home from Iraq..on a family medical leave for his dd


they still don't know why the young woman veered over the line...cell phone?


you are right..people paying less attention....


hugs
