The vultures are circling overhead...wings spread wide as they soar, waiting...We're all waiting...Waiting for the now inevitable phone call. Every time the home phone rings, my breathing stops and I wait, listening for something...anything, but silence.
My mother-in-law is dying and it's one of the most unsettling realities I've dealt with. I can't completely wrap my head around how Dan must feel, or my in-laws for that matter. While she's very much a part of my life, and someone I love dearly, I'm still on the outside just a hair, yet close enough that tears fill my eyes when I think about it and I quietly run through how we will break the news to Cole on a regular basis. We live in limbo waiting for the call. Tensions are running high...and there's nothing to be done...yet...we simply wait.
