I have been away the last few weeks, if anyone noticed.
My mum got sick, was admitted to hospital. Five days after being admitted she was diagnosed with cancer & given 2/3 weeks to live. 3 Days later I brought her home to nurse here, as her wish was to die at home not in hospital & I was also very distressed at the way she was being cared for in the hospital. Two weeks to the day, after the diagnosis she died. Her funeral was yesterday, it was just as she & I planned, it was beautiful, even down to her bamboo coffin!
I miss her terribly, she was a huge part of my life & I feel like life will never be the same again. But I will be going back to work tomorrow & need to try & pull myself together & get back to some sort of normality. So will try to be around the boards here a bit more.
