24 Mths in..I gotta whole lot of living to do now

[Irish M]

Update on me FIL. He past away last night peacefully. I got the news today on my way back to Canada. XW also added that she will let me know about the service and that me and the girls are welcome to come.

That would be very uncomfortable. Since all of her immediate family hasn't even spoke to any of us in over 2 years. Her sister who is the godmother to D17 hasn't reached out.
I think we will pass. We sad our goodbyes to him a few months back.

I wont lie. His death did affect me. Its all very sad that this is where we are and the girls are not part of any of it. I know we only saw him a few times a year but its still hard.

I told the girls on the drive back. The refuse to go so I will respect their wishes. Its sad.

I did reply to her message.

I am sorry to hear that. At least he is at peace and no more suffering. How are you doing?

Not so good. I am a mess. thanks for asking.

I left it at that.
