A photo a day – a new regime

So I popped around dad’s today and it felt as though a new regime was instigated. Rather than steak and chips and me, dad and mum chatting it was fish and chips and just dad and me.

The lunch was a little surreal without mum – you can just see the arm of her chair next to me at the bottom left of frame. Still we had a good chat as well as some tears. What can people do other than endure the pain of loss and absence?

We talked about doing something – however  little – each day and possibly going up to town by taxi to see his friends. But the reality of right now is that he is weighed down by bereavement. After 64 years of marriage I can understand that.

      Thanks Tanya. I’m using a Polaroid Plug In for the site that allows captions. It then automatically makes them accessible when hovering. 🙂 Still enjoying your holidays I hope.
