Sorry I haven't been around lately and replying to my PM's, just thought I'd let everyone know what is going on. My Dad called me on May 3rd from their seasonal residence in Florida and told me he thought my Mother was having some kind of "spell" and he was taking her to the hospital, I flew down the next morning. At first the docs thought she had a stroke, but further tests showed that she her brain was completely encased in cancer which had metastized from breast cancer she had a year and a half ago. Things progressed pretty rapidly and she passed away in a Hospice in-patient care facility on the 26th of May. It took some time to get my Dad put back together and head home, we got back about 5:30 pm yesterday. I'll be trying to sort though my messages in the next few days and replying to everyone who wrote while I was gone. Thanks for the patience.
Ben

So sorry about your Mom. I just went thru that myself. It is hard on the remaining parent.
My heart goes out to you, and your Dad.

Oh Ben,
I'm truly sorry for you and your family. I'm glad your mum is out of pain now but I'm truly sorry you've lost her. I don't know what to say but you are in my thoughts.
lots of love

Sorry for all that happened to your family.
All I can say is that it never goes away but it will get a bit easier with time. Take your time Ben.
