How are you doing @MellowYellow, Karen?

Hello friends, I am back home from the UK. Our dear mother passed away peacefully on Saturday evening. It has been a physically and emotionally draining time, but I am so glad I could be with her. I am one of five siblings, and we were all there over the last week, with many of our children and grandchildren also coming to say farewell. It was a privilege to be able to care for Mum with my sisters over this last week, but now I am really feeling the effects and am absolutely exhausted. I keep thinking I hear Poppy in the house, and I am devastated that I wasn't there with her at the end. My whole body aches; I have a cold and a sore throat and I just want to sleep.

OH has made a beautiful grave for Poppy in the garden. It is very cold here and the ground is already frozen, but we managed to plant some spring bulbs today on her grave (I hope they grow!!), and there is a lantern with a candle that we keep lit in the dark hours. Merlin is being very affectionate and sweet - he does not let us out of his sight.

When I am feeling a bit more up to it I will post a few photos of Poppy. I sincerely thank you all for your kindness and understanding over the last weeks and months. Bless you all. Hug your lovely doggies specially tight tonight. xxx

Oh my goodness, what a rollercoaster of emotions you have had and still have! No wonder you feel drained! It is good to read you were all with your mum, and that is was good the way she went!
Just take it slow and let emotions take their way as you certainly have a lot to process....

Thinking of you!
