Stacy, I'm so sorry. Love and prayers from Buck and me are sent to you and BIL and family.
I'm sorry for you & your family's loss, FM. My situation is prob different than yours. Being the only surviving child, to settle my mother's estate (in NY), I had to get everyone's DC sent to California. It was some time after the fact, though. Had I been in NY, I may have gotten them sooner going to the hall of vital records (?). I downloaded the forms, filled them out, enclosed a check etc & it took over a month. The only thing I can think of is to check w a vital records dept in your state. Hope that helps. Again, my condolences to you & yours.

Sometimes you can talk to the coroner directly and tell him your situation I did that when my dad died as my brother lived in Oregon and I lived in New Mexico my dad lived in Georgia the coroner came thru for us. You live in a large city but it's worth a try. You would be surprised what you can get if you just ask and explain your situation.

I am so sorry for what you and your mom are going through. I had to take care of things when my grandmother, mother and father died. When mom died dad had a heart attack. So he was in intensive care when I buried mom. If it wasn't for my 5 children being there for me I don't think I would have made it. Thank God for our familys.

You guys are great friends! I don't know how my sister is going to handle this. Not only losing her husband, but, his family when he is gone. They are the kind that leaches from you for life. They always made him do things that needed to be done, because he's got his own company therefore the money, which, is really not true. His 3 brothers and sister have always worked for him. I dread what is coming from them and his worthless kids. He hasn't even seen 2 of them in about 10 years, but, I'll bet she will get it from them too. It's a real mess and I'm afraid for my sister's sanity. Thank you for your loving thoughts and if you will, keep my sister and bil in your prayers.

I'm so sorry to hear this Stacy. My prayers are with your family.
My son goes in tomorrow morning to see a surgeon. The lump on the neck is not a lymph node but a mass of some sort. Although the blood count came out normal and doesn't show signs of cancerous cells he will probably need a biopsy to check what it is. Please keep him in your prayers.

Dina, you and your son are both in my prayers. I know how frightening this must be for you. I am glad you have gotten the appointment so quickly.
