    This household is wiped out. First it was sickness, came out of nowhere and now it's full blown colds with horrible coughs. On Sunday went to see my Aunt, she has a headache she can't get rid off and can't sleep. Grief is strange.

He has been in bed all day, his whole body is hurting. I am still crying now and again, my brother Simon came from London and he didnt want to talk. In the end we talked and had a cry together. He can't believe she went so fast.

I know she died knowing she was loved by everyone. 4 weeks is…
