16th November

Have just returned from two weeks in the UK, our Dearest Mum was bid a fond farewell in great style, many thanks to all that attended, it meant so much to my sisters and I that so many of her special people came. She would be very pissed off that she couldn’t attend in person [never one to say No to a big occasion], but she was there in spirit. I will not go into detail in this blog concerning our loss, save to say that it is huge and very painful. She was very deeply loved. I wish my sisters and her grandchildren, strength and encourage them [as I am myself!] to hold onto all the wonderful memories we have of her, to keep us fortified until we can finally accept her early departure.
