hello everyone 

I lost my mum on Thursday aged 69 from secondary cancer in her liver and bone .

ive never lost someone so close before (I'm 42) have lost grand parents years ago but I was so much younger 

i can't eat sleep function properly ....it's an effort to get in the shower 

i was with her at the end  on the hospital ward with a curtain around us along with my dad , hubby and brother and it was eventually peaceful but I'm just sitting here wondering how she is treated after death . I know she goes to the mortuary & eventually the undertakers but what happens to her directly afterwards ...will she be wrapped up in a blanket or just stripped down ....does the respect still carry on after the family have gone 

look forward to you replies xxx
