Lost my wife to cervical cancer   Message List

Re: [Cervical-Cancer] Lost my wife to cervical cancer

Hi Janice:
 
We never had any children but have one child substitute, a black-lab hound mix we named Doc Holliday.  Doc, at least once a day, searches the house looking for her.
 
As far as my I guess they are now my ex-in-laws goes, when I notified her brother that she was in very critical condition in a comatose state, his very words were, "Call me if she passes away."  And when I notified her sister, she was a little better telling me that she was sorry and wished she could see her sister but couldn't get away from work.
 
My wife and her sibblings were not on speaking terms.  This started whein their mother passed away about 12 years ago.  The will was very clear and specific but her brother was the exectitor which was a huge mistake.  Each of her children were to receive $100,000 but due to medical expenses and etc. that was reduced to $40,000 (so he says).  But the biggie was the sale of her mother's home.  The home sold for $750,000 which was to be split 3 ways according to the will.  But the money is unaccounted for.  We did hire an attorney but they live in a state where he can't he be held responsible or be forced to make an accounting of the estate.  So we were at his mercy....there was no mercy, just his greed.
 
Needless to say, the $40,000 is long gone thanks to medical expenses.  My wife had to have 4 major eye surgeries thanks to Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy.  The surgeries didn't restore her vision, just stablized her version at about 35%.

Thanks for writing, I am so very sorry to hear about your wife. And don't be angry with your in-laws, I'll bet what is going on is their so wrapped up in their own grieving process that it is hard for them to help you right now.
I was also inseparable from my mother, in fact the day I was in labor on 3-6-03 I was there trying to make her comfortable, and believe me I would not change a moment of that. You have to feel the same. You did not mention if you have children? But whatever female that you care about, please remind them how very important it is to be checked every year. I have a son and two daughters as well as two sisters, and I guess we all learned from my mothers mistakes of not following up. But it is still very scary to loose someone so close to you, but evently it does get easier, it doesn't go away, and you will constantly think of her and wonder what you could have done different. But reality is Nothing. There are still times now ( 7 months ) later that I want to call her and tell her one of my daughters achievements, I just know that each one of our loved ones are watching out for us. There are even times I feel like she is around me. Please don't get angry and keep an open mind, your wife would likely want it that way.

Talk to ya later
Janice
