My mum just died

My poor dad doesn't even know yet - he's deaf so wouldn't hear the phone. He moved last week while mum ws in hospital as she wanted a bungalow. Too bad she never saw it. We had a detached relationship but I'm still feeling raw.

I remember reading about this last week swedishmum. I'm sorry to hear about your mum.

Remember - your feelings are your feelings. Don't feel guilty if you feel unable to do the "loving daughter grieving" bit.

Thinking of you. (hugs)

Thank you everyone. I feel so sorry for my dad but he's turned into professional mode (as a retired vicar) and has gone home to write his sermon for the funeral. Not the best end to my birthday.

Thank you so much for all your messages - as an only child it's good to have somewhere to post. I'm so proud of my dad - he'd only moved 4 days before (for mum's sake). He took the funeral and did a wonderful sermon (he's a retired vicar but I'm not religious at all) which had all of the 130 people there in laughter and tears. How he kept it together I'll never know.
