Unhappy My MIL is dying :(

Dh just got the call tonight, she had Actue Mylogenous Leukemia, and she she fought sooo hard when she had Liver cancer and she was in remission, well now she got this 2 wks ago and DH sister called tonight to say she only has a few days to live..
Her kidneys are shutting down, we're so devestated the girls cried there little hearts out for a good hour non stop, my 17 yr old is still crying.
DH is on his way up it's about a 4 hr drive and we're going to go there on Sunday, DH doesn't want the girls to see her like this but remember her when she was alive and healthy!! We just seen her a few wks ago, she looked good.This all happened so fast!
My FIL has dementia he's not doing all that well either.
Prayers would be appreciated.
Thanks!

I'm sorry Becca, it's good that your hubby is going to spend some time with his mom before she passes.

I hope her passing is as peaceful & painfree as possible.

Drive Safely
