Remembering November 6th by Yvonne

It is so difficult for me to relive those last sad days with Mum at Trinity Hospice seven years ago.

Every firework that booms into the night these days reminds me of how they frightened her in her last slumber. Her bed was right beside the window that overlooks the common.

We were all there for Mum throughout those dark days. She told us she did not want to be alone.

But I have so much more to be happy about because I had this amazing woman as my mother.

She is still with me in spirit and I think of her often.

I see her in the faces of my family, so her presence still lingers.

And the dreams she once had for her children and grandchildren still shape our future.

I will always remember her with love.
