I was in two minds whether to post this up or not as I don't want to depress people but I just can't believe how life goes sometimes.
So I lost my mum (65) to the big C on 15/01. We were there for the last week or so right up until literally the end. Not nice seeing someone you love die, so utterly sad, but peaceful nonetheless - especially after 6 years of fighting C in its various forms. We had the funeral exactly two weeks ago today. That whole period of time was just a relentless routine of being kicked where it hurts time and time again.

Even though the time was ultimately taken away, we had what little time was left to say all the things we wanted to say...
I was chatting away to many of the family who had turned up.
As I made myself a cup of tea, I spoke to my younger cousin (35) about bits and pieces. Here we are today and was today found dead in his hotel room. He'd been to A+E twice recently with lung complaints I understand. No actual COD yet.
I feel grateful for the 40 years I've had come November and I know when time is up, it is up.
So if nothing else, I am learning to take life a lot less seriously...
As Leonard would 'say', LLAP!
