My mother’s visiting tomorrow, and I was going to give her some new potatoes.

But then I remembered that last year I gave them some new potatoes and my father had them for dinner then died a few hours later, so now I’m a bit hmm.

My advice is to serve up whatever you want unless it was the new potatoes that killed your father. That would be bad!

I have spent the last few months tip-toeing round my very emotional sister. All the family are upset about my Dad who is now at end of life care and we have been so respectful that at the same time her husband (who we all love) has been diagnosed with cancer. My sister has a lot to cope with right now but things are even worse for my mum.

We can't all keep acting like we are in the middle of minefield all day and every day. Sometimes just being normal is the best thing.

I’m pretty sure it was just a coincidence, but you never know!

(Tbh if anything it was that I’d been there sorting out a load of paperwork and he went “right, that’s sorted”. But I think it was just time.)

My sister’s not speaking to me, since, oh, last autumn? She got drunk and sent me some frankly horrible text messages, I told her to go to bed before she said something unforgivable, and since then crickets. Not even a Christmas card. Hey ho.

I am sorry you and your family are going through so much. It never rains but it pours.
