I feels so bad for my DH right now. He has been at the hospital since about 8:30 this morning, because our next door neighbour is on her way out. She has been a constant in his life. She and her husband gave him refuge when his dad was getting abusive and have always looked out for him.. He , in return has looked out for them for the last 10 years or so. Her husband passed away about 3 years ago and shortly before he did, he gave us an acre of property to build a house. We built our house , moved in and all this time, DH has taken such good care of her, even if it meant time a way from his family. I just feel so bad because he is losing his good friend/ adoptive parent. This week is gonna be hard.
Re: Poor DH
And she would have been alone if it weren't for her BFF and him. She has 3 kids, but 2 out of the three haven't been to see her since her husband died. The third was DH 's BF growing up and lives 3 hours away and he is doing his level best to care for her , but DH has been to see her at least 5 times a week for the last 3 months.
