What a huge loss for you! So lovely that you were her carer for the last few years. And lovely that you still talk to her. I can only imagine the breadth of memories you have of her, still being in that same place.

I moved out 8 years before my mother died, for my studies at uni. We had a complicated relationship for sure - I have PTSD due to what she did to me but of course, I still love her. I am an only child and she was a single mother so as you can imagine, we were still close. I would've loved to keep her old flat the way it was as it was also the main flat I grew up in but it just wasn't possible and I had to clear everything out within about 3 months. That... wasn't fun.

So cool you have the novelisation as well! I no longer own the physical book, had to declutter it years ago due to space constraints. But I sure remember it very fondly and I think I still own the ebook version somewhere.
