P... You still have to post your reply to that super long post from the other day.

And lets now chanage the topic to D's Mom.

I am going to offer a suggestion to you.

This is going to be tough on you.

But you need to thank her for being a great mom and a great friend. Thank her for everything she has done the last few months , years in your lives. And how you look forward to seeing D. It is the highlight of your week. Life.

I would recommend you do this with a card. Well written letter in the card. And keep it on that topic. But it has to end with this below.

And then you need to tell her you need some time to process some additional grief. And you need to do this on your own.

Then you need to back off.

And take the time to lean on yourself. D's mom has been there for you. You have leaned on her. But I think you are becoming attached. This is not the time. You are not ready. I would hate to see you lose all this hard work.
