Sorry to hear about your pain.

May be you can find consolation that is she is a spiritual person she will know what goes on in your life way into the future. Im not religious myself but get comfort from the idea of those who have passed away sharing in my happy times and sad ones too.
Take care and good luck with the trying

Hi ckc, Im really sorry to hear about your Gran x

I know it sounds strange and some may not believe me but when my Aunts Dad was dying he got a lot worse one evening. He said to his wife 'I just want to watch Corri' and as soon as it finished he passed away. I do believe people do find the strength to hang on for something x

Message
Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]
For a shocked face,  , type [shock]
For an angry face,  , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face,  , type [blush]
For a sad face,  , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,  , type [envy]
For a sceptical face,  , type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
