Lovely Mum. This time last night the 'phone rang and I knew you'd gone. Driving to the hospital I hoped you'd still be there yet for your sake that you wouldn't. I was so sad and so angry you weren't at home the way we all wanted it to be. We all love you so much, can't imagine life without you, but couldn't stand to see how much you were suffering in the end. You were our rock and our strength - we will carry your love with us through all the generations.
