It's a Queer World

 Molly died peacefully this afternoon.

I don't know what most people do when a loved one dies, but my first job was to phone the London School of Anatomy!

I'd already done most of my mourning, although  I'm still a little in shock - it's only two weeks since she was diagnosed with cancer.

I'm being practical and getting on with stuff.  Lots of paperwork and phone calls ahead of me.

Everything from her tax return to cancelling her pension.

There's a reason she trusted me with this job.  I'm the practical one - and so was she.

My condolences. From what you've said in previous posts you have made all the preparations you could and you have a handle on what needs to be done next. I know how it is; even when a death is expected it's still very much of a shock. I know I thought I was prepared when my mother passed, but somehow it still came as a shock.
