T&P for my family please!

I posted this on my birth month board as well. 

My family has had a lot going on recently.  My grandma (mom's mom) passed away from cancer a few weeks ago and my mom is in the process of packing up and selling her house.  My mom and dad just sold their house on Monday and need to pack.  We just found out yesterday that my grandad (dad's dad) is in the final stages of his cancer and is now on hospice.  Last week they said 3-6 months but now it's looking more like a week or two. 

My dad hasn't been feeling well for about a month, and had some blood work last week.  They finally got his blood results back today and immediately admitted him into the hospital for acute renal failure (basically his kidneys have shut down).  They are doing a lot of tests today so I'm not sure how serious this is or if it's temporary due to a blockage. 

We could all use your T&P, especially my mom and dad.  I'm so afraid I'll go into labor in the next week, I think that would put my mom over the edge.  I keep telling the little guy he needs to wait a few more weeks, I hope he cooperates!

Re: T&P for my family please!

  • That is so much for you and your parents to be dealing with! Thoughts and prayers are headed you way. I hope your little guy sits tight for a few more weeks but that will be such a happy occurrence for your family when he does arrive.
    I heart Ben!!

  • Oh Erin, what a horrible time for your family. My heart goes out to your parents dealing with everything. I hope your dad's kidney failure is only due to a blockage and not long term.

    I lost my grandfather almost 4 years ago to cancer and just remember how he was at the end, I feel bad saying it, but I hope your grandfather goes peacefully when it is his time.

    Just remember to take care of yourself and that little guy inside you.

  • Oh my gosh! That is just too much to handle. Many T&Ps for you and your family. Take it easy if you can. I hope he sits tight, but if he doesn't maybe he will bring some much-needed joy in this difficult time.
  • T&P are definitely on the way. What an overwhelming amount of emotions to be dealing with. Good thing theres a future grandson soon to arrive, so there is something positive and happy to focus on!
    My overly happy baby girl!
