Sorry I've been MIA

Sorry I've been MIA the last few days or so. My sister in law died last Thursday night. She's been sick for nearly 20 years. When she was 14 she had a brain tumor removed and she's not been quite herself or healthy since. These last few years she's been really bad. In and out of hospital and there have been several times that the doctors gave her hours to live. Everybody got to say there goodbyes though we aren't sure she was really conscious. My hubby had grown apart from her since she turned 18 (he's the youngest of 4 - she's the second oldest). He's had trouble sleeping but other than that he's doing good. The sister I'm closest too and his mother is not doing that great. Well they're getting better but it's been rough on them. I helped out the best I could. I made breakfast and lunch on Friday and then we ordered pizza for dinner. I also bought the donuts for Saturday morning. Then for lunch Saturday we made hot dogs - something in expensive since they're is so many of us. They opted to cremate her because all the rest of us wants to be cremated. We said goodbye again Saturday morning - which was really hard. I wasn't close to her but I love his mom so much and his other sisters (esp the one I mentioned above) that it was rough. Tomorrow the sister I'm closet to, her hubby, and my hubby and I are going to go pick up her ashes and take them to my mother in law. We didn't want her to have to go and for a stranger to give them to her. Well I just wanted everyone to know where I'd gone off to :)
