It was Eilean’s funeral today.

She was more of a friend to Donna than me, yet when I invited everyone to celebrate my return to health after the heart surgery she was there with Donna.

She sent me photos of her graduation last month as a PhD doctor, which I have on my screen saver. so she pops up every now and then:-) She was either sitting down, or held up by friends, because she was very, very weak by then.

Her son Rob has been wonderful, keeping us all informed of how she was going towards the end when she could no longer handle the computer.

First Roberta, now Eilean…

That’s middle age I guess, and I was especially grateful to walk in the early morning today.
