was yesterday. It went reasonably ok, I didnt make any effort to speak to my parents instead I went and chatted to other family members I havnt seen in years. I also had hubby's mum and dad there too for support. My mum came up to me and hugged me, my dad on the other hand hardly came near me did not say hello or goodbye, only to tell me there was a viewing if I wanted to see nan again.
But what do you expect when there was a group of JW's standing there watching my every move its funny my other nan was told it was a private funeral and so she didnt attend and here were this group of JW's Im sure none of which had even met my nan standing there.
We sat in the row behind my parents and druing the service my mum leant back and grabbed my hand and held it for about 5 mins, it was the most physical contact I have had off her for over two years.
I updated my cousins and aunt and uncle what was going on as they had had no idea, other than the obvious shunning at the funeral.
My brother and his wife was a no show which we thought odd.
This was the first funeral I wore pants too, I was a little worried about how mortified my folks would be and then low and behold a JW sister turns up decked out in all black and wearing pants!!!! It was great
I got to grieve and say goodbye to my beautiful nan
Thanks for reading
