totally agree with your first sentence rosie. However, if he has not spent much time with her I think he will suffer far more. The feelings of regret can be utterly heartbreaking. This is assuming he did actually like/love his mother. We have to remember not all parent/child relationships are always good.

loveOc I have no idea how much he has seen of his mum but she is still his mother and he has lost her
Will he feel the loss any less if he has not been able to spend as much time as he would have liked
My condolences to your friend

Well rosie, it is certainly relevant to a friend of mine. Her dad has a week or two left at most. She is just so glad she carried on seeing him during the past two years

I lost my mum a year ago and Mr. S. lost his a couple of months ago. It leaves a huge void.

Condolences to Boris and his family.

A sad time for her family. Little Wilfred will never know his grandma. Condolences to the family.

I wonder just how much time she spent with Boris this last two years?

Can’t really see how that is relevant

Saw a programme about her, her portraits were incredible. Such a gifted painter. Losing a mother is hard for everyone. RIP Charlotte.

I hadn't realised there had been a program about her art, I quite like it.
RIP Charlotte

Condolences to the Prime Minister at this sad time. He described his mother as a powerful force or similar words. He will miss her very much I should think.

Mother of our PM
I first heard of Charlotte when she was the subject of a Sky Arts program. Her art was is certainly very dark.
She suffered from very poor mental health and also had Parkinson’s.
A difficult and interesting life.
Rest in peace Charlotte flowers
