I adore her. She had melanoma in COVID, they said they got it all etc, and it's back. Looking like it will be pretty quick now.

Thinking of your wonderful Evelyn, may she sleep tight. How wonderful you all are doing that last spider dance, a moment to be cherished always.

You write beautifully about her, she sounds like a very special lady. 💗

I hadn't mentioned the spider dance - us three sisters just used to dance like spiders (known as a spider dance).

Me, middle sis and brother in law did a last spider dance with her before they extubated her - to teenage mutant ninja turtles as that was the first spidery song my sister could find on Spotify.

What a lovely, close and fun family you are. I’m doing a spider dance for Evelyn and for you now. 🕷️

ThickSkinnedSoWhat · 03/07/2023 23:23

I am so very sorry to read your update, though I'm please precious Evelyn was surrounded by her loving family at the end. I don't have any wine in, but I will be going for a coffee in the morning and will ensure it is an oat milk latte and I will think of you, Evelyn and your family. My thoughts are with you x

MsRosley · 03/07/2023 23:37

She was so lucky to have a sister like you, and vice versa. I'm so sorry for your loss, OP. x

hotpotlover · 03/07/2023 23:38

Evelyn is a beautiful name (my 2 year old niece is called Evelyn).

May your lovely sister rest in peace and it's wonderful how you were all surrounding her with love and warmth during her last moments.
