it doesn't rain here it pours - updated

[Netty]

I havent been around much, my father in law has been in hospital for the past 2 weeks and for the past few days has gotten worse,he is very poorly, we are immensly upset as you can imagine. And hoping for the best. He is 81.
i am in the process of cancelling the trip to florida for the wedding, as at this stage and with only 4 weeks to go we don't know whats going to happen in the next few weeks days or hours.
He has one son and one daughter and his wife and the 6 grandchildren, it is so very sad to see how he is, and very hard to stay strong for them and myself.
Jeanette.

Sorry to hear this Netty and to you all. Do you have to cancel right at this moment, or can you wait a bit longer to see how things go? If you were to leave it I would still let the insurance company know.

Aww Jeanette, it sounds like you are having a terrible time, and I'm thinking of you and your family. I'd hang on another week or two before cancelling your holiday, as things could change quickley (I hope so anyway)

Take care, and let us know how things are going

Jeanette, I know exactly what you are going through. We had the same with my Mum last year. She fell and ended up in hospital, and also got loads of complications - a stroke and pneumonia.

We left it until the last minute before we were eventually advised not to go away on holiday. It's a good thing that we didn't really, as I lost her in the middle of what would have been our first week away. (She was 95 though, and had definitely enjoyed her life to the full).

Huge to you !! And if you want someone to talk to you know where I am. I didn't have anyone to talk to, being an only child.

Jeanette for you.

Can you hold out a bit longer with cancelling the wedding??

Jeanette my thoughts are with you at this worrying time I went through a similar thing when my MIL was in hospital. We didn't cancel until two days before we were due to go but I knew we wouldn't be going but nobody said it out loud!

Just know that everyone is here for you so any time you want to talk....

 

[Netty]

I have had to cancel the villa, as the rest of the payment was due and if i didnt cancel i wouldof lost all the money. I've phoned virgin and the ticket can become/is an open ticket up until January.
he wont be coming out of hospital.
The trip to florida was for my nephews wedding, and if fil is still with us up until then we couldnt go just incase anything happened while we were in florida.
thankyou for your support
