Sorry to hear your news Homer....lost my mum to the big C a few years ago. Final days were in a Hospice and the McMillan nurses were amazing...made it much easier seeing that she was in such good care.

I'm deeply sorry for your loss Homer. It sounds as though the hospice staff were there when you, and she, needed them.
I sat with my grandmother when she died a few years ago and I will never forget, or be so proud, as I was the last person she saw before passing on. I still miss her dearly and owe the nursing home staff a huge debt of gratitude for the way they looked after her and treated her in last days giving her all the dignity they could under the circumstances.
My thoughts are with during this difficult and daunting time.

Be strong,and keep your chin up mate.

Sorry to hear your news Homer, your next win will be for your mom.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to comment. Feeling a lot more positive in the last two days as the funeral planshave started to come together and I think it will represent her perfectly. Still a lot of stff to sort but it doesn't feel quite as raw as it did although it is still there all the time. Met the vicar today and got a lovely balance. My mum was a churchgoer but a lot of her friends weren't so we're going for two old favourties for the hymns Lord is my shepherd and all things bright and beautiful (or as the vic said "all things B&B"). A couple of prayers, a reading and job done. Short and sweet jsut like she asked.
I'm going to hit some balls on Sunday to clear my head a touch and because mum wouldn't want me to stop. The funeral is the 12th so I plan to get back on the course on the 20th to just give it a knock. I doubt I'll still be able to focus fully. Step by step I think but I know she won't mind me getting out there. Spookily the 27th March is the Woburn day and would have been her birthday so I fancy a good showing. It's in the stars.
Cheers all for your words. It has meant a lot to me and Mrs Homer who's read the thread too and taken comfort from your support

Sorry for your loss Homer.
I lost my dad last year, ironically on Oct 12th, and on his anniversary I will be attending the funeral of the landlady of my local pub and you'll be at the funeral of your mum!
My dad was a fanatical golfer and it's at times like this that I really miss him as he absolutely adored the Ryder Cup..............................and now I can't talk to him about it. I was unfortunate in that I was stuck in the hospital car park when he actually passed away & I felt awful guilt for that, however, I regularly told him I loved him and that was important to me.
The really important thing I want to impress upon you is that the pain does ease, day by day. You won't feel it at first, but it does get easier so please hang tou gh and think of all thegood times you had with her and relax in the knowledge that she is at peace and is watching over you with your dad.
Stay strong mate,
Slime.
