What to say to family

With the holidays coming up, I think that our usual extended family celebrations with my husband's side of the family will be painful/awkward since our AD is currently homeless and her whereabouts are unknown. Most of his immediate family knows that she has had problems but not to this extent. Most of his extended family do not know and we will be seeing them this year for sure.

I am really at a loss as to what I should say when my husband's family asks about her. The last thing I want to do is to be breaking bad news at a party especially when a few people don't know anything about it at all.

Is there anything I can say that would be honest and deter more questions? It is going to be a hard enough holiday season with her gone.
