Well today.
Very emotional.
A true celebration.
Selfishly I felt more alone today than I have in a long time.
Lots of couples and families supporting supporting eachother.
A look, a touch.
Me on my own.
Then I phoned my poor mum & I cried.

It was not wrong of you to tell your Mum how you feel. You would always want DS to confide in you, and your Mum will feel the same.

It's not wrong to ring your mum Beanie - no matter how old us daughters and sons are we're still our mums little ones. Bet she worries more when you don't get in touch - I do with mine.

What a horrible and upsetting day you've had Beanie, you deserve some wine to cheer you up, I hope you've got some.
Re the meeting, don't worry about something that hasn't happened yet, it's a waste of your life force... and it may not be as bad as you think.

Thank you both.
My mum is now in her late 70's and I do try very very hard not to worry her.
Anyway, DS had sent a text & then I phoned my mum & just howled.
