Hi I have just read your post and wanted to reply as I lost my beautiful, amazing mum yesterday afternoon and completely heartbroken. I was my mums Carer and she was my bestest friend. I really need someone to talk to right now who understands the pain as the thought of my mum not having a proper send off is also heartrenching. 71 years on this earth and this is how she is taken and how we get to say goodbye. 
 

I am sending you my love xxx

Hi both of you.

My angel mum passed on 9 April - she had the corona virus which was too much for her to cope with she already had cancer and lung issues in the end it was just too much. She died with my husband holding her hand. Just 72 years old also. To me that's too young but I know deep inside mum didn't want to battle cancer and it's cruel treatments and die a slow death (she was stage 4 at diagnosis) what hurts though is the hospital's DNR form they made her sign . I feel they wanted her to die and that tears me up.

There will be no funeral for mum. No body can go because of this virus. Her ashes will be given to us & we will have a little celebration of her life as soon as we can & then place her ashes in a place she loved. My life will never be the same without her.
