What my mother recognised then - and what I understand now - is that losing a close family member is one of the hardest experiences that anyone can ever endure.
Never being able to say the word 'Mummy' again in your life sounds like a small thing. However, for many, including me, it's now really just a word - hollow and evoking only memories.

She chose this somber outfit, a black shift dress with contrasting white Peter Pan collar, from one of her favorite places, Topshop. It was from their Fall 2012 line. She also wore it a month later when she recorded a video message in support of Children's Hospice Week, in her capacity as patron of the East Anglia Children's Hospices.

It's thought she wore this dress again in her third pregnancy, visiting the Hornsey Road Children's Centre in November, 2017. Although she wore a cream coat throughout, a white Peter Pan collar and short black dress could be seen peeking out at the top and bottom (right).
