So the time has come.
I just received a phone call from my Auntie, and my Nana has gone to join my Mother. Born on the same birthday and we think they had a heart attack on the same day too.
Always a strong independent woman, she had come off fluids 7 days ago and was not supposed to make it past last Friday. Inspirational until the end, proving you can overcome all odds with a little willpower! She will be missed. The last thing I remember of her was chasing her around a table at Christmas (I am not sure she had any idea who I was at all due to her dementia) and laughing a lot.
She was a woman of the world, travelling to far away places and full of stories of royalty and all sorts of mischief with an awesome sense of humour.
Berets and brooches being her trademark.
It’s been a crazy week and a half, but it has left me with a deep sense of lineage and feminine power running through me; a deep sense of my feminine ancestral line being fired up by their leaving.
With the flames ending now within me.
And I can feel them burning.
So blessed to be part of this family, this gene pool, this ancestral line.
May they both now be free and at one with the beauty of all that is.
Love you Mum.
Love you Nana.
Fly free.
Ill fly your flag from here.
