My nans funeral was last Wednesday. Even though it was heart breaking, it was truly a day to celebrate her life.
She had music from westlife-raise me up and Jennifer rush power of love.
Myself and her brother had the honour of eulogies. , I promised her I would find the strength and I did.
The whole church was full and she was buried with her son who she lost 50 years ago.
I then slept at my grandads house with him and we talked for hours about her. It was lovely!

How absolutely lovely that you gave your nan such a wonderful send off! Your nan would have been very proud of you!! X
That's a good way to do it. There is no way I could have stood and talked at Davids funeral, I just wouldn't have had the inner strength so very well done, you can feel proud of that.
I bet you really enjoyed spending the time with your grandad as well, all this memories to relive!
Lovely I hope you and your grandad are ok xxxxx
Well done! Its important to feel you did her proud.
Glad you talked with your grandad. It helps you both.
love, Jean x
Keira well done for being able to talk at your Nan's funeral. Not an easy thing to do.
I am so glad everything went well. I am really pleased that you stayed with your Grandad too. He is going to feel so lost without your Nan.
Take care and remember the good times.

What a beautiful celebration and precious time with your Grandad to share your memories and help each other on such a difficult day.
Be gentle and kind to yourself as you now go forwards xxx
Thank you everyone.
It's hard when my Grandad hates the fuss! If I ask him to come around or go for a walk, he tells me to stop fussing and that he's okay.
I've managed to persuade him to watch the football tomorrow night even though the main thing is making him have a good meal!
Hard road ahead I can imagine but we'll get there hopefully xx
Love and tender touch is important. 
Sending warm wishes to my friends 
Communication to loved ones in care homes
