Marie,

I am so saddened by your loss of such a special person in your life. Your mother-in-law was truly a blessing for you. I don't know what heaven is like, but I would like to believe that Ed's mom is now an advocate angel for him just like my dad is now for me.

I hope you are both able to find that peace that passes all understanding in the coming days ahead. A funeral and chemo on top of it is going to be very trying. May God bless you with that peace. My thoughts and prayers are with you both.

Alice
