History In The Making....
..but for all the wrong reasons. As a keen genealogist I used to think it was fabulous when I found new dates to add to my family tree but now I am not so sure.
Yesterday morning, around 8am my Nana passed away.
I am not sure how I feel about it all at the moment, so many thoughts in my head, so much anger towards my mother who will just milk this for all it's worth in her usual selfish way, so much relief that my Nana is no longer suffering and so much sadness that Nana had been suffering dementia and Alzheimers for so many years that she never got the chance to know and recognise her great-grandchildren.
From an amazing and vibrant young woman, to a frail and forgetful old lady, it just doesn't seem fair.
Rest peacefully Nana.
