Family catch up

After a week of constant travel it was good to stop in one place for a week and to catch up with family. This week was the 12 month anniversary of my sisters death at age 57, the end result of an aggressive form of breast cancer. Her courage and strength in facing adversity were obvious, and she is still missed by her children, grand-children and wider family. Even so, life goes on.

At her funeral the final word was with Gloria. She knew time was running out, and made the most of that time spending all she could sharing with her children and grand-children. Some people do not have that time to say goodbye. It was a reminder for us all to value those we have while we can.
