My dear, dear mother has passed away.
Her death certificate will say liver cancer, but in truth she died because of a negligent NHS! Their doctors failed to spot her tumor for six fucking months, until it was too late. She started a legal action against the hospitals concerned and I shall be continuing this in her name.
But for now, let me remember her with love not anger, because I couldn't have asked for a more loving, caring and truly wonderful mother! She had a rough start to her own life, giving birth to me aged just 19, and yet she loved, supported and encouraged me without fail, every single moment of my life.

She sounds like she was an impressive person, and lived through a lot of history. RIP
It's going to be so, so very hard to carry on without her, but I will, not least because she'd want me to.
if you need a break away from FA is it ok.
Really, everything I am, the person I am, I owe to her love, encouragement and support. Now I owe it to her and her memory to enjoy life, because that's what she wanted for me.
I lost my Mother in 2005 and I think about her every day and know she is with me.

May she R.I.P.
What they had done is naught but pure, unadulterated negligence in my opinion, and I believe that they deserve to be held fully, legally responsible for their actions, or in this case, for the lack of them, and therefore take the formal consequences for their gross and fatal incompetence, not only just for you and your family, but for the benefit of those families in the future who may be found in similar situations in the future, so that this will never happen to them.
Glad your mother was such a caring person! Please, take care of yourself, if you haven't already. :<
Brain cancer was what my stepfather died of in 2018 too.
