Today my brother came up from London. Dad told him the news in the car once he picked him up. You could tell by his eyes. He had an hour to take the news in. We went in to see Grandma who is on oxgyen today. She smiled and her eye lit up, that was lovely. Simon held her hand. He started to cry and asked me to go out the room with him. I was gone too. I had 2 days more to come to terms but he didnt have that time. He is fine now. His girlfriend is coming up tomorrow to see her. I think tomorrow Simon will be better to see her. The shock of seeing her is harder to take it.
I can understand that totally.
