It's mums funeral tomorrow, I am dreading it.
Up to now, I have had mixed emotions. Crying a lot when she first died, I was there.
Then relief that she wasn't in anymore pain. Then talking about her to friends and relatives, I smile.
Then somedays I laugh. Somedays I don't even believe it, I still feel she is alive and at home or in the hospital.
It doesn't seem real.
Dad is very down today, he cried on the phone saying how much he missed her. It's heart breaking. I can only be there for him, I don't know what else to do.
I wish I could magic mum back, she was a wonderful mum/wife and would do anything for us.
Tomorrow is the cremation and I feel she will be gone forever. I'm just hoping that it's just her shell that has gone and her spirit and soul are still with us.
I just want to hug and kiss her.
