It's been nearly three weeks since mum died but I still find myself logging on and reading the posts on here.
Mum's funeral was very sad and emotional but everyone said it was a good reflection of her life. I pick up her photo everyday and find myself 'talking' to her. I used to find going to visit her in the NH really difficult but I find that I miss it, strange.
I think I am still a bit numb about it all and I have had bronchitis nearly constantly since before Christmas so perhaps that is my body's way of saying slow down a bit.
Now comes the hard bit, I have so many forms to fill in and really can't face doing it but if I don't no-one else will.
I want to thank everyone who read my posts and left messages after mum died. It means a lot that you all understand about this dreadful illness and all its consequences.
I send my love and best wishes to everyone and hope that you can all be strong and support each other through the coming months and years. Love Sheila
