I've been looking forward to going home to Nigeria for along time and we were scheduled for the 16th of december but today i had to go to get an emergency transit visa because we have to be in Nigeria by friday. why?
FRANK'S MOTHER JUST DIED.
I dont know if its okay to say its okay she died now, because to me, she died perfect.
I'll never be able to say anything negative about her.
I had the world's best mother in law.
Everytime i called her she'd answer the phone by singing
''you are my sweetie
my darling''
and ended most calls with
''i love you o.''
I never knew wat to say to this and always said thank you.
When frank and i were still dating and I sneaked into town from school, she'd make 2 bowls of soup and stew and sometimes threw in some yams because she knew there was a chance my dad would catch me if i had to go to the market.
She was always cooking and feeding people looking for free food. After we married she thought she she should stop cooking for us as it wasnt her 'place'. But I like awoof too.
She gave me one of the best compiliments of my life and always made me feel essentially 'good'.
When Frank and i quarreled, she always took my side and would say '' you want another man's daughter to suffer in your house abi?''
I spoke to her last week and she said she was only calling because she was watching a nollywood film called MOTHER-IN -LAW, and was only calling to ''look for my trouble''.
she'd have been 55 january 1st.
I hope she is fine now.
I dont know if i should be worried about frank.
He seems fine.

I'm so sorry to hear that. Was she sick? She was pretty young, my mom is going to be 55 in dec and i can't imagine.
Wow, life is crazy. My mom loved my paternal grandmother too. Even though she died in '78 (i never met her) she still talks about her till today, how much she loved her and how she was closer to her than her own mom. I'm glad u got to experience such a wonderful woman.
Wow she sounds like an amazing woman. So sorry for you loss.
may her soul rest in perfect peace
i can't believe she was nice, let me not start my debate on mother inlaws..
awww *sigh*
Anyhoo u have good memories of her and thats all that matters
awww. sorry darling, she seemed like a very lovely woman. but she'll rest in peace.
Awwwh sorry dear femme.
May her beautiful soul rest in peace, Amen.
I pray i get a M-I-L like urs.
Regards to Frank.
Aww, how horrid!The good ones always go first don't they? And she was young too! I tell you Frank's holding back the hurt...Just be there for him and grieve with him even if he's chosed to do it silently...Take care babes...may God give you the fortitude to bear the loss!
My sympathies,
Noone wants to see someone they love go.
She sounded like a very loving woman.
Awwww, I'm so sorry. My deepest condolence. You were truly blessed to have such a wonderful relationship with your mother-in-law, but I am sure I'm not telling you anything that you don't already know.
ahhh..another precious soul bites the dust...
she seemed like a wonderful person and you are even luckier to have had a mother-in-law that precious because others have thiers as a thorn in the flesh..
May God grant you and frank peace and serenity this period as we know she is in a better place
Sorry about the loss of your near perfect mother-in-law.May her sweet and gentle soul rest in peace.
I hope Frank takes it well.Losing one's mum and at such a comparatively young age too is so sad.
Try and console him as much as you can.
Have a safe trip to Nigeria.
oh femme, this is so sad. she was so young. please accept my condolence.
Hey, I'm so sorry to hear about your loss? How is frank coping? You should worry about him even he says his fine.
Take heart dear. May her soul rest in peace, amen.
Omashe O. She sounds very nice. A rarity when it comes to Mother Outlaws in fact. Sorry to hear about your loss. I hope Frank is bearing it well. My condolences to all.
So sorry for ur loss Femme.
May her soul RIP.
Take care of u & Frank.
May her soul rest in perfect peace. I hope you and Frank are doing ok under the circumstances. Take care...
My condolences.
She was so young
Oh thats so terrible..
Yes she died perfect but its always sad to loose a loved one, especially one as nice as she was...
Sorry abt ur mum in law.
And have a safe trip to Nigeria
hew, Femme, my condolences oh. It is wonderful having a good mother in law. She rests in peace, Amen.
Frank probably hasn't allowed himself to deal with it. Just be there for him when he does. It cannot be easy for a son to lose his mother. And, so young too.
My sister, travel safely. God's blessings to your family and your self in this trying time.
Femme. So sorry luv have been away. Really sorry to hear about your mother-in-law. My prayers are with you both at this time.
Please accept my condolance. I wish her soul rest peace.
Lovely lady. May her soul RIP!!
