I just got off the phone with my Mom. She was in tears when she called. She has reached her limit, her stress is off the charts, and she is feeling like it would just be easier if she wasn't here anymore.
I am dying a little inside because I don't know what to do to help her out. I am so worried about her right now, and so at a loss as to what to do.
She leaves for Hattiesburg, MS in the morning and will be there through July 10th. I really feel that Papa is just waiting for her to get back in town and for my brother and Sarah to get home from their honeymoon, and then he will pass. If he doesn't, and he lingers for another 6 months or so, I really don't know what we will do or how much more my Mom can take.
She apologized profusely for laying all of this on me, but I am glad she feels comfortable to talk to me even though there doesn't seem to be much I can do to make her feel better.
It's times like these that I really wish my Dad was still here...
In a situation like that...all you can do is listen. xoxox
