A wonderful, heart-touching read, NE,

So sorry that your Mum had so much pain. She must have wished she could talk to someone. She must have felt very alone.

Laughter is the best medicine, so they say. I think it's good to have a sense of humour, but not to ignore the tragedy. I think the most important thing is to look at the situation, determine what is possible to do about it, and go with what is possible. Smile if you can.

Thank you for sharing, dear girl.
