I'll explain this......
Mum passed away on 1/3/2008, but she donated her body to the University Of Melbourne. We got a letter a couple of weeks ago to say Mum had been cremated and her ashes ready to pick up.
Dad and I went on Thursday, the people at the funeral home were lovely, her ashes came in a lovely navy blue box.
I was surprised to learn tho that she'd been cremated late last year 10th December, unfortunately the date is the same as one of her sisters, i'll not be telling her this tho :{
So finally Mum is back, Dad has sprinkled some of her ashes at the Netball courts like she asked and then we'll be sprinkling most of them up at Broadford where her memorial garden is.
When i got home from collecting them tho i went into shut down mode again, it bought back all the pain....... it never really goes away does it
