On Wednesday 8th July at 1:14pm, I lost the most positive, motivating force in my life.

She spent her entire life preparing me for everything… except the heartbreak of losing her.

Seventeen months ago, I sat holding your hand as we received the devastating diagnosis. From that moment on, I watched you face every single day with incredible bravery, unwavering positivity, and a heart that remained more concerned about everyone other than yourself. But that was you, My mum the most kind hearted, selfless and supportive woman anyone could ever know.

You taught me how to love deeply, to be kind, to stay strong and to always see the good in people. Every part of who I am is because of you.

Being there for your final breath was the most physically painful moment of my life. Yet somehow, within that unbearable heartbreak I found comfort knowing I was chosen to walk beside you until the very end. I made you a promise that I would never leave your side and I kept it. There is nowhere else in this world I would have been.

Life will never be the same without you. There will always be a space that only you could ever fill because no one else could ever be what you have been to me, you will always be the girl in my life!

The biggest lie I ever told was, “You can let go now, Mum… I’ll be okay.”

Because the truth is, I don’t know how to do this without you.

Rach this breaks my heart. She was the most beautiful soul I'd ever met. It was such a blessing that she passed our lives and made the biggest change in them for the better. She taught me alot at work. And I could never thank her enough. We will forever miss Carol and she'll always be apart of our team at work. ♥️ Not a day goes by that we never think of her. I'll miss her so much ♥️

One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord. Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky. In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand. Sometimes there were two sets of footprints, other times there were one set of footprints. This bothered me because I noticed that during the low periods of my life, when I was suffering from anguish, sorrow or defeat, I could only see one set of footprints. So I said to the Lord. You promised me that if I followed you, you would walk with me always. But I noticed that during the most trying periods of my life there have only been one set of footprints in the sand. When I needed you most, you have not been there for me? The Lord replied. “The times when you have only seen one set of footprints in the sand, I when I carried you” 🤍 I am so sorry! I know how strong you are but I’m sending you and the boys all the love in the world. Stay strong you’re beautiful Mum is so proud of you. Always know she is with you and you can overcome anything. I’ll be in touch 🤍 loooong story (but forget all that) I love you and you are always in my thoughts. Mum is at peace now, love you ♾️ forever proud of you xx 🤍
