"You can remember her and only that she has gone, or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry, close your mind, be empty and turn your back, or you can do what she would want......
smile, open your eyes, love life and go on."
These words were written and left to me by my own mother....I think she was trying to tell me I had done all I could for her. I am sure your Mum would be wanting to say the same to you right now Alison.
Jim.....my thoughts are with you old friend, I will call you later.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland
