    Hi Guys

    I am sorry to say that my mom-in-law passed away on Sunday 03 May at 17:44 .
    She did fight to the bitter end, and her last week was an emotional rollercoaster.
    She was admitted to hospital with severley dehydrated kidneys, and she was in a terrible state.
    The whole family stayed with her round the clock taking turns even though she was not always totally “there” with us. On Sunday eveneing my husband told her he would take care of the whole family, she looked up at him, smiled and closed her eyes for the last time….
    We had her funeral on Friday the 8th, and the Church was packed with so many people it was truly amaizing!
    My father-in-law is taking it very badly – they were married for almost 52 Years!
    How many people can say that they have been able to do that?
    We held a HUGE BBQ on Mothers’ day at his house to celebrate her.

    As much as I miss not being able to lay next to her in bed and just chat over the days’ expierience, i am glad that she is resting now without pain, and CANCER FREE!!!
