 My dad-in-law passed away on Jan 28th, his eldest son's  (my hubby)birthday. He was ill with colon cancer and the last days were tough for everyone.All his brothers and sisters- 4 of them) and their families came to be with him (from Australia and Malaysia) in his last few days or came for his funeral. His sis Celine who was looking after their 90 year old mum broke the news to her the morning she left. My grandmother-in-law seemed to know even before they told her as she started crying and took ill even before they broke the news to her- in fact on the very night he had lapsed into unconsciousness , hours after he asked for her repeatedly. While Celine was in the train on her way here and other family members were flying in from Australia, Grandma passed away. we lost her 22 hours after her son. This morning we had my dad-in-law's funeral and the tomorrow it's my grandmother-in-law's funeral.She is in Malaysia- 3 hours away. Please pray for us. The whole family is griefstricken.
