It was totally unexpected. We siblings had not heard from her for a few days. She was in the habit of texting one SIL daily as a brother is ill. None of us could get a response from her phones so the police broke into her apartment and found her. They say she appears to have just collapsed.
She was in her early 70s and people have said well she had a good life. But it was not meant to happen like this. She was the healthiest of all of us, looked after herself, exercised, was very active and outgoing. She is the first of us siblings to go and we are just stunned.

So very sorry for your loss. I lost my sister a few years ago, suddenly and completely unexpectedly. I think it is harder when it just comes so suddenly. So very sorry.

I am so sorry for your loss. I understand how unexpected loss can be so hard to deal with. My aunty passed away last year under very similar circumstances. While she had been diagnosed with Altzheimers, she was very physically healthy and still lived by herself and managed her day to day life perfectly well. As we lived close to her and were the ones who spent most time with her, it was such a shock that she passed away so suddenly without warning. She had spent the day with a friend down the beach, went home, got into bed and passed away sometime later. Her daughter had rung the police as she couldn't contact her on the phone and when they rang me to say they had broken in and found her, I said "oh that's good". I had assumed she had been gardening or out (this had happened before when police were called) When they said she was deceased, it was so terribly shocking. As you say, we so expected her to have many years ahead, she was only 71. Condolences to your family. Corinne |
