I have stayed very close to my ex in laws even though my first husband and I don't communicate at all unless there's something going on with our son or daughter. I was 15 when I first met these wonderful people and 16 when I became part of the family, 13 yrs later when my marriage ended my Mother in law said to me I told you 13 yrs ago that he wouldn't change and I have remained part of the family even though I've been remarried almost 19 yrs even my husband now is close to the family. My former Mother in law passed away the end of November a yr ago, her oldest daughter passed the beginning of January a yr ago. The youngest daughter passed away in her sleep last night, she just turned 45. When I heard that this morning I literally lost it and had to bury my feelings and calm down because I had my 5 yr old grandson Mason here and he was asking me what's wrong Grammy??? Anyway life is short we have no idea if there is going to be a tommorow for anyone of us so let's treasure each and every day we have with friends and family. I had no desire for a cigarette because I know life going to happen good or bad and whether I smoke or not and I most definitely choose not to smoke ever again. I feel so bad for my ex husband and all the family members. Please choose to live a smoke free life no matter what is happening in your lives, I am on my 232 nd day of freedom from cigarettes.
