Poor G, hard enough to see a loved one resting, but easier if they look they are sleeping. I wonder if G being near his mum makes him feel he is doing what his dad would have wanted, looking after her. Making sure is as OK as can be expected.

I think they are both very lucky to have you, and by being strong and making sure everythng is being cancelled and organising the funeral you are probably helping a whole lot then if you were to break down as well. Maybe at the funeral it will sink in for you but if doesnt I wouldnt worry, we feel an attachment to our in laws of course we do but no one will criticise or judge you on your emotional response.

There is no doubt your marriage isnt off to the ideal start, but I think the both of you are strong enough to cope and have a strong marriage, perhaps once the greiving process has eased a weekend in Donegal or a weekend locked in the house will do you both the world of good. But soon he will be home annoying you, cos after someone passes life is inconsiderate and does go on. I hope that doesnt mean but I always find that hard after someone passes away, life carries on and eventually we have to carry on with it.
