Apologies For Absence
I’m sorry for not posting these last few days and most likely for the next few as well.
My mother is very poorly and at the ripe old age of 89 is now slowly slipping away. It’s so hard. Watching her deteriorate is hard. And our lives are on hold. There are many things that need to be sorted out, not just the blog, but it’s difficult to get stuck into anything when a call could come at any time.
Back soon. Take care x
Oh my sweet that is so sad, I’m so sorry for you. You will be back when you are ready to & you are doing the right thing now. Take care. xx
Thinking of you and yours. Take care.

So sorry to read this Jessica, hugs from us all here. Take care, may your mum find comfort knowing she is surrounded by love xxxx
My mother-in-law died last winter at age 93, so I can well imagine what you are feeling and trying to cope with. I’ll be thinking of you and your family.
I’m sorry to hear your sad news, Jessica. Staying close is the right thing to be doing – both you and your mother need the comfort of that connection. I lost both my mother and my mother-in-law within 10 weeks of one another last year and, although shaken by their losses, I know they were aware of my love even as they slipped away from me.
My thoughts are with you x
So sorry, Jessica, it must be so hard for you all. I have been through it and you have all my sympathy.xx

I am sure you will be heartened by all the good wishes sent to you by the garden blogging community, Jessica, knowing that all these people, most of whom you have never met, really do care about you. Losing a parent is one of those experiences almost all of us have to go through at some stage, but it will be a different experience for each of us – may you and your Mum find both find some peace and happiness in these last few days or weeks, Jessica
So sad to hear your news Jessica – it is hard to watch either of your parents die – it always feels as if part of you goes with them. You will have plenty of happy memories of your mum to keep though and look back on. I wish you both many peaceful days together and hope you mum slips gently away.
My heart goes out to you – it is no fun seeing your loved ones slipping away from you.
A stressful and heart breaking time for you . There are so many people sending you good wishes which is really heart warming. My best wishes too, I have been through this and know how awful it is. Take care. x
