My brother called me to ask me to check mum's jewellery. He suspects an ex-friend of his may have helped himself. He's particularly concerned about the bracelet he and I gave mum for her 40th birthday (her first birthday in Adelaide without dad) :(

Oh TC how horrible. Was anything taken?
Yep the bracelet is gone. So is her engagement ring, a diamond and sapphire ring and there was another empty box that I think had earrings in it.
Oh no thats despicable. How could someone do that. Im sorry
Oh TC - how terrible :( - what a low life to steal those precious sentimental items of your Mums :hug:
TC I'm so sorry, i know how important those things were to you :hug:
So i've been feeling down & really missing my Mum lately....
I figured out it's because Mothers Day is coming up, I really really hate this. It sucks :(
:hug: Cheshire. Me too :(
I'm annoyed with my aunt (mum's sister) that she is taking Mumma out for lunch and hasn't invited my brother or I. My bro and I always did lunch with Mum and Mumma. Aunt lives in Melbourne and is flying over for the occasion, but she insists on going to a fancy hotel because she didn't like Mumma's local last year. So that means she can't afford to pay for all of us - not that we expect her to. I wouldn't mind so much if she had ever spent a Mother's day with Mumma before Mum died. She better not hijack Mumma's birthday in June as well.
Bro and I are working on recovering Mum's jewellery. Dad's wedding ring is gone too. My brother is giving his mate a chance to tell us what he did with it, if not he'll file a police report and hope that that will scare him into admitting it. We just want it back, even if we have to pay for it. I've been hunting through photos to take to pawn shops. I did find a video in which Mum's voice can be heard so that's a nice keepsake that I didn't know we had.
Well here I am :( mum passed peacefully on Monday night after just a short 5 month battle with liver cancer :( I think I must still be in shock because I'm not really upset. I got to say goodbye and told her it was ok to go on Monday morning. As horrible as it sounds I wish I hadn't gone back on Monday night cause now I see that sight of her of the gorgeous sight I had from the morning.
I know it is probably going to hit me like a tonne of bricks on Monday at the funeral. Thanks for all your support ladies
Kylz i'm so sorry your here :hug:
TC i hope you find them or get them back & that is so unfair and rude of your Aunt.
Hope you get to so something special for her Birthday in June :hug:
Thanks Ladies. Still doesn't feel real :(
:hug: Kylz, I'm sorry you're here. I don't think it ever feels real. But you become used to it and find a new kind of normal.
Sending lots of love and strength xxx.
Regards,
Dianne
Happy mothers day beautiful ladies I know we are all in the same boat today some very fresh some a little older but still as fresh. Hope you all have a good day with your families and know our Mamas are proud watching down on us xxxx
I hope you have much peace on this mother's day Kylz and everyone having their first mother's day without their own mum. And love & hugs to the everyone else :hug:
I don't really think of my own mum on mother's day anymore... I always think the day is all about ME :lol: Becoming a mother myself has been quite healing for me in many ways as before there was just a void. I wish my mum was here to be a grandmother though and answer all the million questions that will always be unknowns now she is gone.
Love to all those who don't have their Mums around today.:hug:
Now that my mum has passed away (3 years ago) I feel her with me constantly and talk to her regularly in my thoughts. I know she is guiding me in the parenting of my two girls and keeping our family protected. Happy mothers day mum and to all the mothers out there I hope you have a lovely peaceful day.
