I'm so sorry to hear this about your mother-in-law, Bilbo. I'm glad your wife is able to stay with her mother and father during this sad time. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Bilbo, remind your wife. May the sorrow you go through losing a muched loved mother be replaced with the joy and love of Jo's wonderful gift she gave you as her child which you enjoy now as life.

Remembrance Day in Australia is dedicated to Australians who died as a result of war, particularly from World War I onwards. A minute of silence is dedicated to the deceased, especially for soldiers who died fighting to protect the nation. Remembrance Day is annually observed on November 11 although it is not a public holiday.

Remembrance Day, which was originally called Armistice Day, commemorated the end of the hostilities for the Great War (World War I), the signing of the armistice, which occurred on November 11, 1918 – the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

There is no hope for Jo's survival, but I would like to think that her last hours are as comfortable as they can be and anybody who would care to pray for that, please do so.

Thank you.

Prayers and thoughts offered. May the final hours be blessed with the warm comfort of a family close by.....

I stumbled a few months ago on this lovely piece of an Edison film from Morecambe in 1901. There are lots of charming things about it but the most pleasing to me were the children. If you go to Google Maps you can "travel" the same route along the promenade and when you get to the stone jetty there is now a war memorial with 162 names on the WWI section of it - just a few of the far too many British names lost. I wonder how many of those young boys were among them.

Many thanks to all of you who posted regarding my Mother in law.

Jo passed away earlier this evening, at home and with her husband of nearly 50 years and her daughter (my wife).

It's a sad time, of course, but also somewhat of a relief.
