Sorry to say (I have not been around much) that things are not so hot with this family!
BIL now having really bad leg/knee pain and can no longer walk and has Meals on Wheels coming to his house being he can no longer stand. He is getting better s l o w l y I'd say.
In the meantime SIL died about 2 weeks ago and a Mass of some sort is being said in mid-July and son of SIL is nowhere to be seen lucky for him (bad situation at best).
Also, just found out that one of the young people that died in the Berkeley balcony collapse is indeed a first cousin to this family as the priest tending to her stopped by my BIL's house the other day to tell him about it and deliver his condolences to the family I suppose.
Anyway, needless to say prayers are still badly needed in this what is beginning to be a more and more tragedy every day scenario as of recent and here I am at 3:00 a.m. typing and should be in bed asleep.
All for now and will post again after I find out anything more re: this very sad situation.
I never had a big family personally and all but one are dead now and I'm sort of glad in hindsight as watching this group go one by one (there were 10 of them at one time) is too much to bear to witness.
Thanks again you guys. Means a lot to me and to this group of my in-laws that are decent folk indeed.
