My mother died and had a lockdown funeral.

She didn't die of covid but I think she didn't get proper medical care. She kept having strokes and 'a bit of pneumonia' but not covid.

Pandemics suck.

Oh, Lord, no...how horrible. I am so sorry that you were unable to be the advocate which you must have wished to be. 😣

@SomeMichGuy thank you. My brother in the UK advocated for her a lot, and each of us (her offspring) were asked for consent before she was put on morphine near the end. My sister in the US was keeping me updated. I said just give her whatever she needs.

@purplepen Wow...wish you could have travelled & seen her.

There are many in your band of sisters & brothers who have lost others during this horrible pandemic.
