She had Alzheimer's disease as many of you know. She had been receiving end of life care at the care home since Tuesday and I'm so grateful that my Dad was allowed to go in and sit with her for a little while on Tuesday and Wednesday despite their careful Covid restrictions. On Thursday my sister had a call to come straight away so she and my Dad (they're temporarily living together while my sister is mid house move) were able to be with Mum in her final moments. In some ways I feel like I lost her a long time ago (to Alzheimer's and because of Covid/Care home restrictions) but I am so relieved that Dad was able to see her more in the last few days because that will help him a lot with his grief I think. He felt so guilty about not being able to look after her at home  *Saturday afternoon* I appreciate all your kind thoughts and words so much. Thank you  |

I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s hard to lose your mom, no matter what your age.
Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. May her soul and all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.

Oh gar I'm so very very sorry. Even when it's sort of expected it is still very difficult to deal with and more so under the circumstances you and your family have had over the last few months. Sending you ((((hugs)))) |
