So sorry for what you're going through. We lost my great Aunt Harriet just a few weeks ago. Even though she was 90, she'd been doing fine , so as you say, it was a shock. I know what you mean about fights. I've never understood that. My family always seems to go crazy just at the spot everyone would be pulling together if our lives were in the movies. Guess we all just gete a bit crazy. I just try to remember my auntie. She was like a gran to me, since mine died when I was 3 years old. Harriet promised "she'd be my gran" and lived up to that. When I think about her and the lovely times we shared, the other stuff isn't important.
