Up until a few years ago I was my mum's full time carer. She died in, 2020, of Covid. At the moment I am attempting to write a novel.

    1. Beautiful photo, Chris. Her care for you/her children is visible in her body language and you returned that care later in her life. God rest her and bless you, your son and daughter, and everyone else whose lives were touched by your mother.

  1. I am so very sorry to hear your news. May you find inner strength and peace xx

  2. So sorry Christopher–How fortunate she was to have such a caring,loving and kind caretaker all these years–and how fortunate you were to be able to share your life with her until now. Hope you find comfort in loving and happy memories of times gone by.

  3. Sad to hear of your mums passing. My wife’s father has just passed and I can relate to the difficulties you face, The virus makes everything more difficult. Please accept my condolences

  4. “Do not stand at my grave and weep
    I am not there. I do not sleep.
    I am a thousand winds that blow.
    I am the diamond glints on snow.
    I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
    I am the gentle autumn rain.
    When you awaken in the morning’s hush
    I am the swift uplifting rush
    Of quiet birds in circled flight.
    I am the soft stars that shine at night.
    Do not stand at my grave and cry;
    I am not there. I did not die”

    My deepest sympathy Chris.
