Very sad today as my lovely mum died :'( :'( :'( :'( She broke her hip three months ago and has never recovered. She was my hero and I don't know what I'll do without her. She had Alzheimers for 7 years and I've looked after her all that time.

I cleared off to my allotment for the whole day yesterday so I could get away from the phone and people and be on my own to give me time to think about ma. Today I have to sort out funeral arrangements and hymns and stuff and it's going to be very difficult. Ah well, here goes ...... Wish me luck :)

Oh Wardy, my thoughts are with you. I can't imagine what it is like to loose your Mum, My Dad was bad enough :'( :'(

The garden/Lottie is a good place to be and just think, and the weeds do get a good battering with anger over losing someone so dear.

Big big hugs DP

Wardy, I don't know what to say. Like DP, my old dad leaped off this mortal coil nearly 5 years ago and it has been the toughest thing I could have ever imagined.

You look after yourself Wardy, don't neglect you at the busy and incredibly emotional time. Thinking of you Wardy, thinking of you lots!

Love Emma and Mark

Wardy, all my thoughts and hugs are with you. My words will not help at this time, just treasure all your memories of your Mum, they are her gift to you. I am sure she is missing you as much as you miss her. Take care.

Wardy. I can imagine what you are feeling. When we lost my husband of fifty years in 2003 so suddenly I thought my world would end.. Thank goodness for kids, family and friends. I am sure like me you will have wonderful memories to help you through this difficult time. My thoughts are with you. Lorna.

Our deepest sympathy is with you. When eveything is settled and you are back in charge, we suggest planting a tree as a memorial. Take care!

My ma is 84 this year and being so far away is hard at times. My father, older and younger brother have all died and I have a guilt feeling almost every day about not being closer to look after her. Wardy, you have been around and close to her when she most needed it and although it's never easy when parents, especially mothers leave us, at least people like you are people who have cared and been there when it mattered. Irreplaceable yes, forgotten, never.

cannot add to any of the above, except to send my thoughts and sympathies too, take care.

Wardy, I know it's a difficult time but don't lose courage.

Memories grow more precious
When loved ones must part,
But remain forever growing
In the garden of your heart.

My thoughts are with you

Dear Wardy, I am so very sorry to hear this awful news.

Goodness knows what you are feeling right now, but having lost both of my parents i have a fair idea :(

Take it easy and take it slowly and find solace in your garden.

Love to you xxxxxx

So sorry for you. Must be awful.
Thinking of you.

I'm so sorry to hear that Wardy :'( Hope you're bearing up and all the arrangements are coming together.
I felt such a jolt, when I read your post.........

My husband's lovely Grandma is currently in hospital after breaking her hip (and subsequently falling while she was in there and breaking the other one as well), and she's just been diagnosed as suffering from dementia :(
She's 92, and it's all looking a bit unstable at the moment.

Thinking of you...........

Sincere sympathy, Wardy - Alzheimers is such a cruel disease it means we are robbed of our loved ones twice over but through time the happy memories do come back. Bear up and do take time for yoself as well

BAGGY · « **Reply #18 on:** June 06, 2005, 21:29:38 »

Can't say much more then what's already been said. I lost my mum when I was 20. Life is crap sometimes but without the crap times you never know how good the good bits really are. Dont over do it - delagate. You need time for yourself too remember. xx

lilylover · « **Reply #19 on:** June 06, 2005, 21:35:20 »

So sorry to hear of your loss wardy. As much as you will need friends and family now you'll find peace at the lotty, somewhere to clear your mind or remember the happy times. God bless.
