My sis is Ellen Mary, the same as Mum. She is partners with a totally nice man called Tim Yearwood, whose family originate from Aruba, West Indies.
Ellen has 5 children, John, Andrew, Belinda, Haley and Tim. H & T are twins, aged 24. H is a Nursery Nurse, Tim is at Uni, doing Lord only knows what for studies, but is a very clever lad. I believe it's to do with Math, or something equally brainboxy.
Ellen's son Dominic was killed in a terrible car crash near Heathrow 20 years ago., 15 Sep, 1988. I couldn't imagine the pain she went through, and she prayed I would never know or feel it.
Then my Ziggy died and she was totally wrecked by my pain, nothing anybody could have said or done could take away the awful pain I had in my heart.
When Chris was killed this year, she and Big Tim raced up the motorway to be with me, and stayed for almost 2 weeks to get me through the funeral and sort stuff out. She is one amazing woman, I adore her.
Ellen is 5 years older than me, we email and phone each other all the time. She will sort Mr John Memorial right out, believe me!!! I wish I was half as brave as she is, she suffers no fools in her way, I'm just a timid wee thing like Mum. I will keep you up to date with whatever happens, and Thanks again for caring. xxx
THANKS ANGIE, that was wonderful to read.
Hell knows when my sis will arrive, she said half-term for school???
Having no children and living in Scotland, things are different up here, Thank Fuck!!!!!!!
I never know when School is on or off, I just watch the weans playing outside and know they must have a holiday. Though nobody in my house gets a holiday.
There is only me and Wee Ziggy, my cat of 10½ years.
He was born to Woodie, Ziggy's Cat, who produced 4 kitties on 4 May, 1998, just a few months after Z died.
Wee Zed is well named, sleeps all day, prowls all nite, and eats like 4 horses.
I love him to bits, he is my only companion in this bleak empty house.
I had a partner for 9 years, but he met a scutter with no knickers in Bulgaria and left me, 3 years ago. Good Riddance and all that.
His ex-wife Elisabeth died last year, and rather than attend her funeral and support his daughter Cheryl, he sat in the pub and got so drunk they had to phone an ambulance!
I think I'm well rid of that person.
Thanks Angie, but must get to my work in Charity Shop.
My sis is travelling up from London to get him by the balls and get the mess sorted out. He won't know what hit him when she starts!!!
You sound just like my sis and me, full of all the correct things to say, until IT HAPPENS, then no words will come out in any knid of sensible fashion.
I remember when Our Dommie died, Mother and me went to London for his funeral.
My sis was, at the time, dealing with her 4 year old Twiglets, Haley and Wee Timmy. You should see them now, 20 years later!!!
Haley is a Nursery Nurse, still living at home with mum and dad, and loving every moment. Timmy is still at Uni, doing what boys do at that age!!! Auntie Els NEVER asks questions.
your Stephen & Michael sound like real good guys.
My Ziggy's Best Friend, John Bonham, has just returned today from 9 years in Iraq and Afghanistan. (His photos are on the GTS sites). That Boy sent me a cheque for £400 when my boys needed a cupla flowers and a big bit of dignity.
I love my John to bits, he calls me his MAM, as he doesn't get along too well with the real one, Chrissie.
John is now home, safe and sound to see his Mammy.
I'm a proud Mammy today.
Your husband should never feel what we feel, but I totally agree, Angie, You Never Know How It Feels, Till You Don't Have Them.
Correct statement there, I agree full-heartedly with that.
My love, take care, all my feelings and love to you xxx
Angie, it is 9 in the morning. I have already had a phonecall to ask if I will help wee Jan in the Charity Shop where I work.
The St Andrew's Hospice Shop, where I have many good friends.
Janice phoned to ask if I will help her today. The way I feel i can't even help myself, but The Hospice is in need, so I will rally myself up a bit and go.
My mum worked in Oxfam for 25 years, I think I can manage 4 hours for a very worthwhile cause. Nellie would be so pleased if I make the effort.
Thanks for your help, it will spur me on to do a bit of good today.
