We got a call from Glen's sister last night and she was frantic. Althea had gotten sick and had on her c-pap, which is a mask and breathing machine for sleep apnea. I'm guessing that she got some in her lungs and quickly went downhill with her breathing. She was already having trouble with her breathing because of congestive heart failure. It wasn't long after that that she passed away. It's going to be a tough week for their family because they were all very close to their mother. Prayers would be so appreciated. Thanks!!

Thanks so much everyone. Glen's pretty much spent the whole day with his family. Right now they're at the funeral home making decisions.

It's such a difficult time for the family right now. I hope things can go smoothly without any quarreling. Diana, be strong and don't get too stressed out!

I really don't think that I'll get stressed. I do have a neice and nephew with their boyfriend and wife coming to stay with us for a couple of nights. I'm trying to get things straightened up for that. Also we have a meeting this evening with Althea's pastor here at the house. Our house has been designated at the place where everyone can come and visit. I've decided that I'm just straightening things up and I'm not worrying about the dust or the sweeping.....it needs to be done but it's one of those things I'm NOT going to stress over.

The funeral is on Thursday with a viewing on Wednesday evening so things are going fairly quickly and won't be drug out all week long.

The hard part will come when it comes to dividing her stuff. She left all of Frank's tools and equipment to the guys and the girls get all of the household stuff. It's her nice way of leaving out all of the in-laws. There's not anything that I really have my heart set on getting but my kids have a few things that they'd like to have. I don't know......I guess we'll see on how it all goes. So far there's not been any talk of any of that......which is the way it should be. I'm just worried about that part of things.
