Sad day


Grahams gran died this morning .
She has been in a nursing home for a few years now as Grahams mother couldnt cope, that was a trial in itself getting Barbara(Grahams mum) to have his Gran looked after by others,long story.
Anyway poor Dyllis has been losing it for about 4 or 5 years. We actually havent been to visit her over the last year as she didnt know who e were and was terrified of Graham, because of the dementia not for any other reason, he loved his Gran.
On sunday it was discovered that she had a cancerous growth in her abdoment, they started her on morphine but she died around midnight last night/this morning.
Its very sad but probably a blessing really in respect of the pain that would have been ahead of her.

Poor Dyllis, you were quite a character and will be sadly missed by all xxx.
