Hello,
My precious Nana died on Sunday and I am heartbroken and I just cannot believe this has happend all so quick. She was at my house just 5 weeks ago having some tea and cake for her birthday and she was laughing away and doing just fine. A few days later she started been sick and generally unwell we all become concerned that she might have corona virus.
Her symptoms of sickness continued and got so bad she had to go to hospital they tested her for covid19 and a couple of days later the results came back negative so we thought maybe she just has a chest infection or something which she has had in the past.
the hospital said they wanted to do some more tests and scan etc and on the 8th April we received a phone call to say she had cancer and it is advanced we as a family just could not believe it.
with her been 90 and the cancer so advanced they could not give any treatment.( even though she's 90 she's been super active never had any carers or anything lived in her flat very mobile just my uncle taking her nice meals from MnS daily ). We did not want her to spend the rest of her days In hospital so my mum did her up most best to get her out of there the following day - it was a hard week of her been in hospital because we couldn't visit or talk to her because of corona virus we have just communicated through the nurse!
she came home on 9th April and they brought a hospital bed to her flat. My uncle has been caring for her since she came out and me and my mum went round every single day and sat outside her flat with the back door open her flat is super tiny so we was 2 meters away.
she really started to deteriorate very quick and Friday 17 April I actually went in the flat and sat next to nana and held her hand and said my final goodbye it was the most heartbreaking thing I have ever had to do I still feel distressed.
She passed away early hours of 19 April I just cannot believe this has happend i am devastated. I have never been through anything like this before so I just wanted to share my story.
Xxxx
