Jeff...stepping out of DB. I hope your MIL is doing better. Pleurodesis ..chemicals irritate the outside of the lung surface and cause it to stick to the lining of the chest cavity, essentially sealing off the cells..or..gluing them together and stopping the fluid leakage. Think of it like a leaking blow-up kiddie pool and using the repair patch on the outside. Once the lung sticks, it stays expanded and it makes breathing much easier. It doesn't cure the problem but improves the symptoms.
Back to DB. I agree with above. I still think your W, in a sense, 'needs you' but, as you said to me almost a year ago, they have to 'hang on to that anger'. Keep up your positivity on the phone with her and DO NOT comment on her one line that irks you. I'd appreciate that.
Stength and honor. FIB
