    DA passed away last night. Peacefully in her sleep I believe.

    I feel like a spare part.

    Other relatives took over first thing this morning. Funeral etc is all arranged.

    Thank you beanielou. It has been a horrible day. Like I have a huge hole in my life.


    Mr P and I have spent some time paying off debts so the total is going down. And we cleared the 'boys' rooms of rubbish and washing and had a cleaning and tidying purge.
