Oh I'm so sorry for your loss.
I'm sure that your niece would love to have your support & hugs - just ring her my dear.
Sending you love and hugs too ๐Ÿ˜˜

My sister died on Saturday in the ICU from pneumonia and heart failure. I expected her to survive as she's been in the ICU twice before and wasn't expected to survive then but she did.
My niece kept inviting me to see her in ICU but I didn't want to go. I haven't heard from my niece since. Our other sister went and her other daughter was there too when she died.
I would really like to say goodbye to her in the Chapel of Rest but don't know how to approach my niece.
Everyone is crying and upset but I just feel numb. I don't have any appetite and keep getting things wrong like putting the salt and vinegar in the fridge, trying to turn the TV off with the electric fire remote etc. I'm not normally like this. Any advice please
