Hi all....
Sadly, today, my mum gave up the fight for life, and passed away at lunch time. I saw her last night, on my way through to Brackley, to see my grand-daughter who has broken her elbow.
This morning, the Care home phoned to say mum had gone downhill and they were calling the doctor. They then phoned to say the doctor had been and diagnosed a possible infection or the start of pneaumonia. They said they also thought it was the start of 'end of life', and would let me know if she got worse. Before many minutes had passed, I received another call to say she had passed away..
Those who know the history, know she is at peace at last, after suffering for over a year now. Totally bedridden since November last year. Combined with dementia.
Was supposed to be going to a cousins funeral in Tewkesbury tomorrow, but I have given my apologies on that.
So will be a subdued Christmas here
