Monday will be the second worst day of my life

Sorry for the very self indulgent thread, I posted a few weeks back and had a lot of support.

Monday is my mum's funeral.

She died suddenly 4 weeks ago and I still cannot believe that in two days we'll be cremating her.

Not even sure why I'm posting. Maybe I just need a good old fashioned hand hold Sad

Not sure how I'll do this.

It sounds as if it went beautifully. Sleep well and let the healing begin.

Hope all went OK for you @perhapstomorrow ?

They weren't my words, but very apt and beautiful, and they really resonate with me.

Now it's time to begin to come to terms with my new reality.

That verse is absolutely beautiful, @Crunchymum! Brought tears to my eyes.

I'm glad the service went well and you found comfort with your family. I hope you are doing ok now. Once the adrenaline has gone you can be left feeling very low. Thinking of you.
