H texted tonight from the casino.

His mother has been having a lot of trouble with her legs of late. Great pain and swelling.

Many tests and theories later, 3 broken vertebrae have been discovered.

MIL is 86 years old. Has a pacemaker. Not a terrific candidate for surgery.

Told H she and FIL have been discussing mutual suicide as a viable option for treating the pain.

I pray for my H and my in-laws. Mostly for my H... I don't know what this "option" would do to him, but I'm sure it wouldn't be anything good.

You teach people how to treat you by what you allow.
What you stop.
And what you reinforce.
