Help with elderly relatives - Parkinson's + Dementia issues?

[RC1807]

My mother in law passed away in the early hours of this morning at her nursing home.
She hadn't been conscious or communicative for some days.

I'm pleased my wife was able to be with her for Wed and Thu.

Rest in peace, Betty.

Thank you.

I've no intention of wearing a black tie at the funeral. My MIL never wore dull clothes!
As my wife's still in England, she's already cracked on with arranging the funeral, and an 'afternoon tea' after, as we did for her dad's funeral 18 months ago, and registered the death this morning.

The solicitor's also been advised so he can get on with executing the Will, although we know what's in it.

We said our final farewell to Betty on Friday afternoon at Bournemouth Crematorium.

When the undertakers picked up the coffin, my wife couldn't help but quip, "That didn't take much effort; they could have launched her in the air!"

It was a good send off, although having such a small family lightens the numbers of attendees somewhat. I struggled to keep my emotions under control to support my wife and daughters.

My wife's been absolutely bloody amazing dealing with all of this for the past 2, really stty, years.
I love her to bits.
