My Mother in Law Died

PeppermintPatty said:
The other day my mother in law fell backwards and hit her head. She was rushed to hospital. She didn’t know the date, or where she was. She didn’t know what happened to her . Nothing she said made any sense. She may have had a stroke. Anyway last night she died in hospital. The doctors think she had an aneurysm that bled out. Needless to say the family is devastated as am I.

Patty: So sorry to hear this terrible news. Similar thing happened to my dear friend's sister. She had an oxygen cylinder attached to the tube and she tripped over it and hit her head on the side of the door. They got the ambulance and rushed her to hospital, but she never regained consciousness and died later that day. Just terrible news. 🙏🌹

@oscash - I just realized today that I added a laughing emoji to your post. My apologies. I certainly didn’t find anything funny about what you wrote. I honestly meant to add a hugging emoji. I’m so sorry.

It really WAS a shock. When my mother died it was expected. She was 90 and had full blown dementia. I expected her to die. My mother in law was only 78, so it WAS a surprise. She wasn’t in good health but was managing her ill health..I’ll never forget the look on my husbands face when he found out the news. Good news is that my father in law wants to go into a home. He’ll stay with my sister in law for the winter until we find him a home. We are cleaning out his house for him.

Thank you Kadee. I didn’t realize how close I was to her until she left. The family is offering the pictures I painted for her, back to me. I’m happy to get them but sad about the reason why. I am looking forward to seeing the family soon. Death has a way of bringing family closer. We’d be there now but couldn’t get any boat tickets any earlier.

So Sorry, falls are so devastating for us!
She's smiling down on your families now!
Making lives safe is a 24 / 7's impossibility.
The fall was most likely a loss of equilibrium.
Snowball fell Hit her nose, last fall, 2023, wow was I scared too.
I fell hard in 2016 doing home remodel, walls and floor of a new structure.
Luckly gimpy but ok the next day. Falls are so harmful for so many.

My aunt fell in 2006, broke her arm, she never actually got back to normal and died in 2007.
Rule is do not clutter up pathways in ones home. She collected 1000's of salt / pepper shaker sets. everywhere. no changing that girl.
