You will have to forgive me for not posting anything on GOY at the moment and possibly for a while. I wanted to let my friends know that my dear mother passed away in the early hours of Sunday morning. I have been in London with my husband sorting things out, paperwork and so on, and arranging the Funeral for next week. We are blessed that she went peacefully and is now at rest after months of suffering and confusion.

RIP Mum.

Yes will be thinking of you in your loss Spritz.So sorry to hear about this. When my Mum died after some years of Dementia where she did not know us, there was a mixture of sadness and relief that she was not suffering any more. I think we grieved for the real Mum that we knew all the time she was ill. Bless you and look forward to when you can be active again on GOY.

So very sad to hear about your loss, its always traumatic when you lose someone close but losing a parent is especially so, life is never quite the same when they are no longer with us, just take your time and cherish the memories, thinking about you .

Yes of course thinking of you . Perhaps at your mothers marvellous age a time to recall and celebrate a long life rather than a sense of loss.She has clearly left a great legacy behind for you and your children to take into the future.You will always be surrounded by her. Love to you and your family.

You are all lovely people and have been helping me with your comforting messages. The funeral is over and it was a celebration of the life of a wonderful lady. Of course I shall miss her, but she is in a better place and free from pain and confusion.
Yes, I've been with my family and we have helped each other through this and will continue to do so.
