My father in law, MY FRIEND died 5 weeks ago. I sat with hin and watched him die the last week of his life. It was terrible, but i loved him. After 20 years of hunting together, the last 3 yearsI drove himt to his stand, made sure he was in good, talked on the radio's to him and picked him up every day, morning and night, loaded and skinned a deer if he shot one, WHY, cause thats what your supossed to do for your true friends. Anyone who wouldn't do it for a true friend isn't really a friend. I know the friends I hunt with would do it for me.
Tell your wife thats what he lives for......my father in law was 64. He wasn't ready to die. He had so much want left in him, he wasn't ready and it pains me to think about it. Bad liver and kidney's got him.

I have the same situation with my 81 year old stepfather. After my mother died, he started going around with another woman (who is a good person), but she has him convinced that if he goes hunting he will get hurt. We usually hunt out of climbers, but I bought a ground blind with the intention of him using it as well as my kids when I take them hunting. He still doesn't want to go out, even though he showed some interest in getting out on the leases this spring. I live five hours away, so I don't know if he did or not.
If I ever get to that point, I hope someone puts me out of my misery. I don't know what life would be like without hunting and fishing.

There are huge issues for me .....in the whole "Asking permission" from my wife or her mother. Tell her your going and be done with it. I quit listening to my mother in law the day she became my mother in law.

It is easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask forpermission. Get him to the side and tell him a good sneaky plan to get him out there. If he agrees, then go for it. It will also give him something to look foward to. Do not let the ladies make his decisions. Talk to him and let him decide. As a nurse, he needs things to look foward to and enjoy or he will give up. Personally,I'd rather go out happy than misirable.

If your Father In-Law wants to go Hunting...then make a planto sneak out to go hunting,just be careful and have a good time! 
Its no different than going to town and sitting in a Park....only you get to shoot at something!When I get older and can't get out in the woods I hope I have a Son In-law that cares as much as you do about yours to take me out and set me iup in a ground blind to go hunting...I couldn't enjoy life if I couldn't be out in the woods!
