He needs to remember to take his meds. I know it's mundane but the last thing you want is a crisis with him. Have the other chidren visited?

How is hubby? I know he's diabetic and shock can do strange things. Are you 2 at home alone or has daughter stayed off work to be with you?

I can't begin to imagine how distressed you feel. It's not much consolation but I don't think it will hit g-daughter quite as much as if she'd been living with her mom......... g-daughter's routine won't change too much .... and it's routine that keeps you going. Thank goodness s...

I agree. And I think at that age she is old enough to understand but young enough for it not to be too traumatic. She needs to see her so there is no doubt whatsoever in her mind.

If you think g-daughter is up for it ... I think a viewing is a good idea. Poor little girl but children are so resilient ..... more so than we are.

Obviously those 2 daughters will have been close. There's just 15 months between my 2. All of your children are going to be shocked. You just don't expect it to happen.

I hope he doesn't change his mind about that. I'm sure it will be best coming from the therapy people. What an awful situation. It must have been gut-wrenching for your hubby....... and then for him to have to tell you. Just dreadfully sad.

Trix ..... you will never have expected to hear this from me but maybe you two should lean on each other. It's an enormous thing for both of you..... his pain is the same as yours. Was it the daughter living in your mom's house?
