My dear mum passed away in the early hours of yesterday morning. She was only 74 years old and had suffered from bone cancer for 15 years and was a kidney Dialysis patient for 5 years. The last few weeks have been horrendous for my dad, my sister and I sitting by her bedside watching her fade away and in so much pain and discomfort. She almost had her last wish , which was to die at home surrounded by her small family but she chose to slip away quietly only an hour after I drove home just after midnight. Right until the end she was asking me to make sure I looked after my dad. I know she is free from pain now but she has suffered for so long it's just not fair.
A better word than 'apologise'?
