Auntieflo (A message from her DD)

I am Auntieflo’s DD, and I introduced her to this site some years ago, as I enjoy Mumsnet- (under another name.)

Auntieflo wanted her friends on here (Greenfinch and others) to know that she has been quite unwell for some time and was admitted to hospital over 2 weeks ago. She has now sadly deteriorated and is for Palliative Care only.

She has been referred to the local hospice, so if any of you pray, please pray that a space can be found for her soon as it will be a much more peaceful environment for her there than the hospital.

She is currently in a 2 bed bay, and I have said I could read her any replies that she gets when I visit again tomorrow.

Thank you to anyone who has chatted and met up with her over the years.

So sorry to hear this. I will pray that a bed in the local hospice becomes available for her soon, she will certainly be more comfortable in the calm atmosphere there. Sending love and a hug for you.

I am so sorry to hear this Grannylicious I've met Auntieflo a few times at our meet ups (with cake). Such a nice person, and always fun to talk to. I hope she get's her hospice bed soon and you have time together once she's there. Do give her my love, I'm sure others will be along soon XXX

She messaged me the other day, to let me know that she was in hospital and was sorry to hear that I was so unwell. However, I didn't realise that she was at this stage.
I am so sad to read this news.

She has been a lovely GN friend to me. I am heartbroken, she fought her illness so hard. x

I too hope that a bed is found for her soon and she is comfortable and pain free.

I am sorry to here about auntieflo.

Thank you for letting us know. So often people disappear and we can only guess what has happened.

I sincerely hope a hospice bed will become available soon. I only know auntieflo as a poster, we never met, but at times like this there is an invisible thread that holds us all together.
