McNally Annie (Nee Doherty) Birthday Memories Mummy I understand it all now, I realise why every time you thought of my granny (your Mummy) passing away even after all those years you still cried for her. You always blamed yourself for not being there at the very moment she passed. That's me, that's how I feel. It's strange isn't it, how even when you know you done all you could, your heart still wonders, could I have done more? Grief does that to you but maybe I wasn't supposed to try and save you, maybe I was just supposed to love you through it. And I did. I hope you knew I did. I will never get over the fact that after everything we went through, God didn't let me be with you at the moment you passed. I feel so happy for you that on this your first Birthday away from me you get to be back with your mummy. It’s also reminding me that I will spend all the years I have left crying for you. How does anyone cope with that. I will never ever not miss you. From my Marie and your son-in-law John Nugent. PS Stop messing about, I know it's you trying to be funny xxx
