Also, we were talking about family, and I was thinking about Dh's brother who was killed in 1981, his dad who is gone, his grandmother that we lost in the 80's, etc., and I realized that I miss some of them as much as my blood relatives. I wonder how many people have those feelings for some of their spouses relatives?
Mind you, it may also be time. Like you, I was married in the 70's, and knew Dh's family before that. That might have given us deeper relationships than people who have only been married for a few years, people who rarely see their spouses family, or people who never knew most of their spouses family because they'd already passed away.
I continue to pray for his health.
