sadness

much has happened in the past few months soon after my first blog my mother was flown to hospital in melbourne a very long way from her family and friends i left work and went to her
well invasive and quite major surgery do not go well with 84 year olds sadly all this took its toll and on may 17th at 12.20pm we let her go she was 1 week off her 85th birthday
she was buried on the 22nd
her funeral was perfect her choir sang her children spoke and tears were shed
smiles and laughter were had
now i have memories
when i see her hand written notes or cards i stop just for an instant and then smile
i think of her often as i should but cannot be too sad the person we would have gotten back would not have been our mother or friend or gandmother or sister
and this person would not have liked who she had become
so life does go on
and out of this comes another wonderful story but its not for these pages yet or maybe forever
