It's a bit of a shock as she was in the lounge on Sunday, chesty yesterday and given antibiotics, the gp called to check on her this afternoon but the home had already called the paramedics who decided she might benefit from going to hospital as she had been doing so well. She was unconscious by the time she got there.

Luckily, both my brothers and I were there with her and the doctors and nurses were brilliant both with mum and with us

Oh Kitty, after all the trials and tribulations, it must feel very strange now that she has actually gone.

Sending you every good wish.

It's the end of an era for sure Kitty now that your feisty Mum has finally left. You have been expecting this for some time we know from your posts and your mind will be full of "what ifs" and "what could have been different". Be kind to yourself and let your family help you as I feel sure they will want to do.

Kindest regards and condolences to you and your family. flowers
