My Mum has died, just sixteen days after I lost my Dad.

[LilRedWG]

Following on from this thread: My lovely Mum passed away this evening, she had suffered so long and hard with her health and just didn't want to keep going after Dad died.

We withdrew all treatment and she died peacefully, with four of her six children with her in hospital.

I've not cried yet, despite being with her and having to telephone my sister (who lives in the US) and tell my DH.

Thank you all for your support over the past weeks. x

So sorry to hear this news. I'm sorry for your loss.

I didn't want to post on the other thread as I just lost my mum from pneumonia and I didn't want to hope that your mum wouldn't pull through.

LilRed, that's appallingly sad. I'm so sorry. It'll take some time to take it in, but do try to give yourself plenty of time and to look after yourself as well.

So sorry to hear this LilRed. Wishing you peace and strength x

LilRed, I am so sorry for your double loss. Please look after yourself and do come and chat whenever you feel you need to x

So sorry for your loss. Thinking of you.

I'm so very sorry to hear this Lilred

Oh LilRed - I am so sorry . What a huge amount you've had to cope with. My thoughts are with you x

So sorry, peace and strength to you all.

I'm sorry for your loss.

oh lilRedG - so very for you - what a double loss. Bless you and your family and prayers for strength for you all to see you through.
Un-MNly(((hugs))) for you all too.

Oh lilred I am so very sorry.

I hope you can all find comfort in the knowledge that they are free from pain and that your mum is where she wanted to be.

Look after yourself xxx

So sorry for your losses

Very sorry for you LilRedWG

Thank you all. Not a good day today. Feel totally numb and lost. We went shopping earlier so that I could buy a new dress - as a teenager I promised my Mum that I'd wear a red dress to her funeral as she didn't like all black.

DH, DD and I are just off to visit my beautiful niece, who gave birth to her son a few hours before Mum died. My poor poor brother was between the two hospitals for the day before my Mum died. That little chap has come along at a great time of need.

a little ray of sunshine.
I thought of you today, when I went to my dads house xxx

oh lilred!

Tis good that you know your mum wanted you to wear red, try to remember that she obviously wanted you to celebrate her life rather than mourn her death.

And, as you say, you have a new great nephew to dote on, he is going to be such a comfort to your family.

I love that you're wearing red, it's perfect.

Children are wonderful at these times

Well, I've met my new great-nephew. He is beautiful and my parents would have loved him.

And you can tell him all about them.

Congratulations on becoming an Auntie.
