Condolences. Beautiful essay, as always. I too was fortunate with my mother-in-law. Sweet lady. At my invitation, she lived with us from our wedding till her death seven years later. People questioned my wisdom in extending that invitation, but I never had a moment’s regret about it. Our son had the rare pleasure (in this day and time) of having his loving grandmother with him till he was six.
So sorry for your family’s loss Dr. But what a wonderful tribute! My condolences to you all. I too was blessed with a mother in law who treated me as one of her own. Her prayers covered us as well. Thankful for the faith that we all will be together again someday.
Wow. What a great person. You and Jan were fortunate to have her in your lives. Losing a parent is very difficult. I miss calling my mother after a tough ED shift - she lived the stories. You are a great son-in-law.
Condolences on your family's loss Edwin. I know it is an unhappy and remorseful time for your family, I wish them all ease of heart! This was just a beautifully written article, particularly paying respects 🙏 to a wonderful human being who played an active role in so many lives with ❤️ and kindness! I know it will take some time for healing, however, I feel everyone will come together even stronger than before through her examples! As always you find a way to make something so personal, out to be so elegant, heartfelt and relatable for your readers!!

A beautiful piece. She was loved.
Sorry for your loss Ed. Putting in perspective does help.
Edwin I felt the same when my mother in law passed a couple of years ago.
My condolences to you, Jan, and the rest of Carma's earthly family. She sounds like she was a very admirable lady.
