I havent been posting much for a bit, just thought I would let you guys know whats been going on. My wife is an oncology nurse at a local hospital and works 3 twelve hour shifts per week. My job got crazy and I was not allowed to leave until everyone's work was done, so my wife had to change her schedule so she could pick up our son from daycare (first stress for her to handle). Then at the end of June, her mother finds out she has stage 4 lung cancer that has spread to brain, amongst other organs (Second stress for her). We had a family vacation to Colorado planned with my side of the family, which my wife and little boy missed due to spending time with my mother in law (perfectly fine with me, but third big stress on my wife). I bought the fox, but stressed the hell out of myself returning my SN back to stock before making the trade. Took two weeks, and was right when I was going on vacation. Fast forward to a week and a half ago, my mother in law passes and our world is upside down. For the last two weeks we have been back and forth from our home to where our parents live (3 hour drive). My little boy has been thrown all over to whom ever was available to watch him while we handled family business. Its finally behind us, but now we are back home and my wife is a wreck. I had started some projects on the fox to share with you guys, but never made any progress on them with this all going down. I havent disappeared, this has just been a tough summer that has taken me away from my fun. We will get through it, its just tough because we are very family oriented. This is also the first very close death in either of our families. Im hoping my wife is able to stay strong like usual, and we can sustain an aspect of normalcy in our home. If so, I have several projects to get to work on before winter comes. That means lots of pic posting as well! Hope all is well with you guys.
 
Man. I was just crying about my mom and daughter last night and just had to do it again. I left Ca 17 years ago to live in Mo with my dad cause mom hit the dope real hard. 6 years later with no word since I left she was hit by a drunk driver while walking on the sidewalk. So its been 11 years.

Im 31 and my wife is having our second child next month. My lil girl is 2. My wife was distant from her mother till I finally got threw to her about how she could be gone any day. So we went to meet her and she took my hand when we went to leave and put in on one of her tits as I went to hug her. I ******ed it away and we left. Later I just got ate up about it and told my wife. She called her mom crying and that was the last time we talked to her. She died 3 months after our daughter was born. We planed to take her over anyways but she left us before we could. So none of our kids ever get to have a real grandma.

What got me going last night was the feeling of the kids and grandmas missing out on all the good times I have and am going to have with my kids. I could just picture holding my lil slice of heaven (the best thing ive ever had a hand in) and handing my child over to a loving grandmother. You can not replace that. Sure our daughter knows her grandfathers but its not the same. I loved my grandmother to death. She past a few months ago.

So your not alone brother. I feel your pain. Life goes on.

Dang man, I feel for you. It has to suck looking back on all the missed time you could have had. I feel you big time on the kids. My mother in law was awesome to my boy. From day one she was overly excited, spoiling him and always wanting to spend time with him. It sucks that he wont remember her, because she loved him so much. That is one of the hardest parts about it for me. Obviously I dont like to see my wife hurt either though. Like you say though, that is life and it does go on. Im just hoping things get back to normal without any other major problems coming about.

Thanks Kurt, thats exactly what it feels like. Its made a mess of our plans, I never realized how much she headed up for their family.
