Lovely to see Mrs K again!

The last time I saw Mrs K she was preparing for her husbands funeral the following week. That was quite a few weeks ago. Either she couldnt do it or I was on holiday. It was a great catch up, quite sad because she misses her husband very much. They had been married well over 60 years. Although he had been unwell he was still around and there were the carers so always something going on. Now theres nothing and the house is very empty for her. So she was glad to hear all my news over a cup of tea and she had a smile non her face when I left. So my job was done and I promised to visit again soon.
