Its is so hard, and I am so sorry. It was similar for me to, just watching and waiting is the worst.

Very sorry nemo.

So sorry to hear this Nemo - although I understand about feeling relieved she is no longer suffering. My Nana died a few weeks ago too and I will be thinking of you in the weeks to come. Keep hold of those many happy memories.

Nemo, I can't help with the question about the coroner, I'm afraid, but wanted to pass on my condolences to you.

Jaamy · 17/03/2007 20:25

So sorry that your nan has gone, Nemo, though is a small blessing that she is now out of pain and your waiting is over. Remember her as the very special lady who loved you and your DCs. I'm sure she will always be looking out for you. x

Not sure about the coroner, but I suppose with your nan having a terminal illness the coroner may not see the need to rush things.

Are you able to go and see her to say goodbye before the funeral and things get a bit hectic?

Take care, I know you're dreading the funeral, but try to only think of the love you have for your nan and not let anything else trouble you.

LilyLoo · 18/03/2007 07:47

In our thoughts Nemo. She is at peace hope you can now go back to remembering how she used to be before she was ill xxxxxxxxxxx

Nbg · 18/03/2007 13:27

So sorry Nemo.

Nemo, I am so sorry for your loss, have you been to visit since she passed? I know that sounds strange, but it may help you to see she is at peace and not suffering anymore. I know you are only just coming to terms with what has happened, but when your children are a little older it may be nice to write a memories of Nana book with them, so they get to know who their Great Grandma was and gives you the opportunities to write down all those happy memories. You could get your children to draw and paint, and place them in the book.

mummytosteven · 20/03/2007 22:29

very sorry Nemo

Nemo2007 · 20/03/2007 22:34

thanks MTS

loopy I havent been to visit and to be honest I didnt want as my sister went and she said it was horrible and she wished she hadnt.

Ds keeps telling me he has tried to phone Nana B but she wont answer but its ok because she is better now. He only really knew her via the phone as she lived in Spain the past 6 yrs.
