Thank you. You have walked a similar path before me. Strange that while it is the natural order of things for children to outlive their parents, it is still a dark and difficult time.
The only consolation for me is that I have been able to spend so much time with her during the last few years. It is going to be so much harder for my sister who lives in Amsterdam.
I am also dreading to think what Vernon Dursley is going to do with the garden that is her pride and joy. He hates green and growing things and will soon be slashing the trees and scaring away the birds. Even the avocado and mango trees are not safe from his chainsaw.
She has asked me to bring the girls (the hens) to the Lair and look after them there and I will also ask her what sort of tree I should plant in remembrance.
