Ladies, I need you more than ever now. I'll cut to the chase because this is difficult to write.

1st I get a call that MIL is calling 911. She wants to go to the hospital. That was about 9am this morning. We still don't know what's going on with her and she still doesn't have a room. They are admitting her.

About 12 noon, my older sister 800 miles from me calls and tells me that she has lung cancer. Doctor says he can't operate because she wouldn't survive the surgery. She's dying. The doctor says she has at most a year. She's 54. She doesn't want me to tell the family.

Then about 10 minutes after that, I get a call from the sister who has my dad. She has a badly slipped cervical disc that's causing major pain for her. She can barely move her neck and arm. She has to see a neurosurgeon and may have to have surgery. If she does, she wants me to come and get dad. How can I say no without telling her why? I can't have him here with all that's going on with my other sister. I want to go see my older sister and have some quality time with her before she gets too sick. That right now is more important to me than anything.

I lost two brothers already. I can't stand this!!!! I didn't know what to say to my sister. I couldn't think of any words of comfort. So I just cried. And she listened. And then she told me that we need to talk more often so that we can get everything we need to say to one another said. Oh GOD I CAN'T STAND THIS!!!!

Now I have to go put on a fake smiley face and go to the hospital to see MIL and see what else is going to slap me in the face today.

Love, Barb
