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.

Condolences to you and her family and friends 💐

I am so very sorry. My most sincere condolences to you and to all her loved ones. She will be sadly missed. Rest in peace Auntieflo.

Auntieflo passed last night. I was with her at the time.
I know she was messaging friends on here right up to last week, so Thank you again to everyone who supported her.

Thankyou for telling us about your lovely Mum. I didn't know auntieflo but my prayers are for her and all your family. I sincerely hope she is able to move to the all embracing security and excellent care of the hospice very soon.

I am so very sorry to read this news of the charming Auntieflo, . I met her a few times at meetups although not so recently due to sadness in my own family. I was hoping to catch up with her again, if only to find out whether the plants from my garden had thrived in hers! Please pass on my love and thoughts. x

Just seen. I’m so very sorry like everyone else, to hear AuntieFlo is so poorly. I once sent her a PM when she asked for advice on a TV cabinet. Very best wishes to her and her family. 🌷🌷

I never met Auntie Flo but felt the stoic person through her posts.I hope a hospice bed becomes available soon,and she is painfree and comfortable.

I don’t suppose that Auntie Flo will recognise my name but I certainly know hers and am sad to hear this news. I hope she can be moved to more peaceful surroundings very soon. My best wishes to her and to you.

I have noticed that Auntie Flo was missing from GN.
Thank you for taking the time to let us know how she is.
I hope a bed in the hospice becomes
available soon and that your mum will be lovingly cared for.
We never met, but please tell Auntie Flo that I have met with Greenfinch several times.
My kindest thoughts are with you all.

Another of Mick’s GM friends here, wishing to send my regards to Auntieflo. I’m saddened to hear of your plight. I used to be Urmstongran by the way. I always felt uplifted by your kindness and positivity dear lady.
