I hope someone can help me here as iam baffled, i got the date , time and location of L's funeral today, the head nurse gave me it.
Now i have a friend wh used to come with me to visit my mum with me from time to time and of course met L.
And i really hope he will come along.
I txt him the details and i said i hope he can make it and he said he thinks he can and iwht us both being unmployed i said i'd help him with bus fares if need be.
He texts me back says it is going to the funeral a good idea as we have just know her a short time and people there will have known her for decaDes and might think we are after a free meal(*** *** ***!) And that i might start thinking of my mum and get upset!.
Will i get upset at the funeral, of course, it's a funeral but its because l's passing and not my mum if you understand, i ve known L just over a year the amount of time my mum has been in the nursing home.
Ive been to a residents funeral who was only in the home a few months as she was great with me mum too.
I "only" plan on going to the service and then going away as the "going back for a cup of tea "thing is i understand totally for family and close friends and i totally recognise that crystal clearly.
I am totally baffled at my friends response! can anyone please help??.
