Mothering Sunday

This is just to let my Bloggy friends know that my lovely Mum passed away at around 03:30 this morning, peacefully and, we think, without pain.

      For her, it is best. She was on oxygen yesterday when we visited and was obviousoly struggling to breathe enough.
      Thanks, Sooze. xxxxx

    Sending you warm thoughts and hoping you take comfort from memories and the life she lived, it seems one of those synchronistic moments that she died today ...

    I'm so sorry to read this, Joy. I know these are dark times but your memories of a wonderful lady will come to restore the light. I didn't have the pleasure of knowing your Mum but I am certain that she was hugely proud of the delightful person that is her daughter Joy.
