After my weekend away last week it was nice to catch up with Mrs S again, although she hadnt had a great week.

Just as I arrived the heavens opened and along came the thunder, lightening and rain.

Her brother had passed away last week, she hadn't been sleeping well, and had run out of her pain management medication.

However reminiscing about her brother and telling me how she introduced him to her friend who then became his wife, distracted her from the sadness and her pain.

Sad to hear that Mrs S has lost her brother - I'm sure you were a great comfort to her
