On the 21st January 2009 my beautiful and amazing Mum Lena Dewsbury died suddenly of Ovarian Cancer aged 55.
My mum fell ill a few weeks before Christmas 2008. Mum was admitted to hospital, but discharged nine days later with a bowel condition and was told her condition would improve with bed rest and medication. After two extremely restless and painful weeks Mum’s condition worsened, so we re-admitted her to hospital.
Two days later my family and I were informed by the doctor that Mum had cancer, we were completely oblivious to how advanced the cancer was, and how little time we had left with my Mum.My family and I became extremely concerned at how rapidly Mum’s health was deteriorating and had expressed our concern's to the doctor in charge.
Seven days later, our worst nightmare came true, and we were informed that Mum had days to live. It was difficult to believe that in a few days time, my Mum who had been our strength in life and had always showered us with love and care, was about to die.
During Mum’s last few day's, my family and I were able to stop with Mum and look after and care for her like she had always done for us. Mum peacefully passed away with her family around her on the 21st January 2009 at 5.25am.
My mum's strength, courage and determination will live on, not only in the heart's of her family, but in the heart's of many other's she had been in contact with in all walk's of life. My Mum had a wicked dry sense of humor, and would tell hilarious tale's that would keep you at the edge of your seat. Mum had the ability to make anyone feel at ease, comfortable and welcome. Her smile would light up a room, and her eyes had such warmth which all the family will miss dearly.
My Mum's passion was her family, she was a devoted wife to my Father Michael, an amazing Mother to me, my Brother Peter and Sister Laura, also a doting and adored Nanny to Alfie and Harry, a loving Sister to Diana and Peter and adored Auntie to Jennifer and Robert. Mum also welcomed our partner's to the family with open arm's, James, Matthew and Kerrie whom she loved dearly.
My family and I have some wonderful memories of things we had done in the last few months of Mum’s life, one being my wedding to my husband James in Sept 08, which my mum was”Queen for the day” and spent all day telling everyone she was Mother of the bride with a big Cheshire cat smile on her face, these memories we will cherish forever.

One sad year without you Mum : (
I stand here now, all alone
You’re no longer by my side
The tears I shed I can’t hold back
These feelings I cannot hide
My love for you was oh so strong
I wish you only knew
That I would have done anything
If there was anything I could do
You were always there for me
Whenever I needed you
Now I can’t believe you’re gone
I need you again
When I was down you picked me up
You always did know how
A caring hug, an understanding talk
Or just your beautiful smile
I sit and think of the life you lived
As I shared with you so many years
And now as I look at these photographs
I can’t hold back the tears
What we had was more then Mother, daughter
It was a much deeper bond
And nothing could ever break that
Not even the fact that your gone
The time has come to say goodbye
The angels are calling your name
But I wont lie, I can’t help but cry
My life just isn’t the same
I miss everything about you
You were such an incredible Mum
Although your life on earth is over
Our bond will never end
My love for you is eternal
You have a permanent place in my heart
And I know that someday, eventually
We’ll no longer be apart
So go now, Mum, you have a new home
With the angels up in the sky
Just don’t be upset, if from time to time
You look down and see me cry
I miss you so much Mum. You truly were an incredible Mum. I love you. I'll see you again someday.

lost without you Mum
I miss you Mum, i cant bare life without you. I really want to see you, speak to you, cuddle you and kiss your rosey cheeks. I cant believe its been 11 months this month, i just cant believe it. So much reminds me of you, i think of you all the time, dream about you at night. My heart is broken without you Mum.
You are the best Mum, friend and person in the world. I only hope your first christmas in heaven is a good one as thats what you deserve. I keep wishing you would just walk through the door carrying your shopping bags.
I cant believe we have got to live without you, and what you had to go through. Its so hard without you, excepting peoples mistakes that hurt us, you were so good at forgiving people for up-setting you, but how can i do it without you guiding me?
I am lost without you Mum, but when i close my eyes i can see your smiling face and itgives me strengh to go on this world.
I have bought you a beautiful fresh orchid to go next to your photo, it is beautiful like you.
You made the world so special by just being in it darling. I never wanted to see you in pain, the pain lives on in me forever seeing my beautiful Mum go through that, i can not bare the loss of you Mum.
I love you so much, please help her mend my broken heart Mum.....
Sweetdreams my angel, love you always your baby girl xxx
