Laurel

Laurel, it was quite untimely for someone to tell you about your mum when you are about to enjoy one of Mika's concerts. The same happened to me last year when my soul mate died and I was at a Dan Reed gig. How strange sometimes happiness is tinged with such sadness.

Just console yourself with the fact that you spent the day with her Laurel. Your conscience is clear from guilt - and believe me, that has a lot to answer for. Imagine what you would have felt like if you'd not seen her for ages.

In time that will be comforting, but you must be going thru all sorts of emotions right now. My mum died 3 years ago now so I really do feel your pain sweetie. Try to be strong, you are with good friends on here. xx
