My lovely,dear little Mum who so didn’t deserve the awful, painful ending she got.
I’m grateful for the extra 8yrs we had with you from the first diagnosis, look at all the family additions that have come in that time!
They may not all remember you well, but will be shown photos of themselves with you, and told how you instantly loved them.
Even the last 18months where things have steadily got worse for you, you got to see Mabel & then Toby born.
But the last few months Mum, I wish I could wipe them out for you. Times when I’d be speaking to Dad on the phone and could hear you crying in pain in the background.
But then you’d come on the phone and say don’t worry Dids it doesn’t last long and it’s only every 15minutes. Every 15 minutes Mum!
And through it all you still kept telling me how wonderful the doctors were, and how lovely the nurses. The times I waited to hear what they’d actually said but had to hear their praises sung first!
You could be frustrating at times you know.
But you’re out of pain now and soon I will forget how you looked on that last day and remember you as you were in all these lovely photos.
By the way, I really don’t mind you went on my birthday, I’m weirdly honoured!
Anyway dearie, I’m going to miss you so much, already do but I know we will all meet up again one day.
As I said on the last day, love you Mum, see you on the other side.
Dids xxxxxx
