since i last posted primarily because the day after my last post on the 6th, my dad died in the afternoon, over the easter weekend. Lots of details to sort out. Mum is sort of up and down but i'm hopeful that she will be ok in the long run. It would be good if she could find the confidence and motivation to get out a bit and see a few people and invite some people back to her house for coffee or tea. Who knows what will happen but i'm hopeful.
Dad's cremation is on st george's day, which in his case is appropriate as he often wore a red rose on 23rd april in the past.
I've agreed to draft and read a sort passage about his life, which i will do at the weekend.
To be honest work at the moment, is a little bit of a sanctuary, although everyone has been very supportive, i would rather not linger in death's presence.
I think even mum is looking forward to the day after the cremation. It's been interesting to observe how we all cope differently with death. That's all for now.
The next post who knows!
