My sister has gone

Comment Published at 07:0407:045 comments5 comments99 Visits99 VisitsReport

                               

Received the dreaded phone call last night at about 7.15pm ish.

I had gone to my daughter Sharon's house to baby sit the babies, 3 and 2  while Mum and Dad went out to a 50th, Sharon and Matthew never go out, so a great oportunity for them, and for me to spend quality time with the babies.

Sharon and Matthew had basically just left the house and the phone rang, it was Christine, my neice, the one in Dampier with my sister Marion. Obviously she had rung here and my hubby had given her Sharon's number.

THE PAIN I FELT IS INDESCRIBABLE.

I rang Matthew's mobile and gave him the option of letting Sharon enjoy the night, the good boy told her and she came straight home, while I was on the phone to my other daughter, Michelle, the one in Queensland, so we had a "group hug" and a good cry, then I rang home straight away, my hubby, Tony was in tears, my Nicholas was in tears, my Anthony was in shock. He had only been home about 24 hours from seeing her, he knew she was bad but didn't want to accept it.

After a cry with the boys, I rang my other sister in Adelaide, for an hour we cried, we laughed, we remembered, cried some more, then started remembering family we had not even thought about telling. Mum is the oldest of 14, so we have a lot of family! spread all over the country.

Tonorrow (later today) Sharon is going to come here and we are going to go through the photos, there will be tears and lots of remembers.

We are also aranging for Michelle and her baby to come home for the funeral which will be in S A , thank you to Marion's husband.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, EVERY ONE GET THE VACCINE FOR CERVICAL CANCER, AND, VACCINATE YOUR DAUGHTERS.

AND GET YOUR SMEAR TEST DONE REGULARLY

Hopefully this cruel waste of life can be eradicated.

Marion never had children which is very sad for us as we know what a fantastic mother she would have been.

You all know that pink ribbon is for brest cancer, white is for domestic violence, red is for AIDS.          I beleive that purple is for cervical cancer, I would love for every one to wear a purple ribbon on march 5th which would have been Marion's 57th birthday. I plan on making some for her funeral to give to every body. I need to do something, I feel so empty right now.

I sincerley thank every one that has left me messages of love and support, I am relying on you all to help me through this sad time.

Very sorry to hear of your loss my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family in this sad time, cervical cancer is also close to home for me, so I hope your blog is read by many that neglect their smears.  The colour of the ribbon is Teal xxx
