R.I.P. momwolf

[Sundae]

Wolf, I have very much admired the way you've taken care of your mother, and the humour you've brought to what must at times have been frustrating and miserable.

Every now and then I remember your story of your Mum picking all the raisins out of the cereal because she thought you wouldn't eat it otherwise. And then scoffing them herself. It is funny, but it illustrated something I can't quite articulate about older parents and makes me feel a little sad too.

Your Mum was very lucky to have your support, love, common sense and respect while her health declined. Having had a very short dose of taking care of an elderly relative, and seeing my Mum do the same thing for the last year, I understand how strong the bonds of love are especially in difficult situations and how deep the loss must be.

I'm so sorry for you and your sister.
Much love in the time to come.
