I need some prayers. My wife's Grandpa fell and broke his hip in 3 places last night and needs to have surgery today. He was already very sick and I worry he won't survive the surgery.
Unfortunately my wife and I aren't speaking to each other right now. Do I reach out to her?
So sorry to hear about her grandpa - praying for the surgery! If I were you, I would reach out to your W. Keep your expectations about her response low, but I think it would be a good thing to do. I wouldn't push anything, but definitely let her know you care, all that. Let her see your kindness and compassion.
I would reach out to W. Your a great guy and although you are going thru this I would continue to be the person that you are. I would not bring up any R discussion just a simple.."my prayers are with you". You may want to offer up some sort of support as well "let me know if thier is anything I can do during this difficult time".
God Bless, Eric

I hope that grandpa will pull through. I agree with TF & Eric, I would reach out and offer support as well. If she reacts negatively, don't be disappointed...you should feel good about caring in this situation, no matter what her reaction will be.

I'd have reached out if that happened to my wife, just offer condolences and ask if there is anything she needs. Same thing with her family, mother and father.

I agree...reach out and offer support to her during this time. I do hope the gentleman recovers soon.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
They had to postpone surgery until tomorrow afternoon. His potassium was too high so they have to do dialysis in the morning to bring it down.
We talked for a bit this afternoon. I asked if it was OK if I was there. I told her that I didn't want her to be uncomfortable and would understand if she didn't want me to be there. She said she didn't want me to be unwelcome.
