Sadness

Tomorrow I will be hopping on a coach to travel 200 miles to stay with my mother. Ordinarily something I would be very much looking forward to but sadly it is to attend the funeral of my aunt who recently died from breast cancer. She had been ill from secondaries for many months so it was not unexpected but it has still been very hard to deal with because once again I am faced with the horrible consequences of having breast cancer. It will be a very emotional day for all of us.

This is the 4th member of my family we have lost due to breast cancer which somehow makes this loss even harder.

I am hoping that it will be a bright sunny day for the funeral because my aunt was a bright sunny person who particularly enjoyed Spring.

Rest in Peace Barbara, gone but never forgotten.
