Carol Harrison's funeral
There's nothing in this world that can prepare you for losing your mum, your first friend and your best friend. My mum was the strongest lady I know, she was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer in February last year and she still was persistent that she would live her life to the fullest with theatre trips, gigs and different shows despite being faced with all of her challenges, she also insisted that she would still do everything in her power to go to work because the children she worked with would lighten up her day and not let her illness defeat her or her amazing spirit.
Although being diagnosed with her cancer we unexpectedly lost her on Friday 31st May in the morning due to some added complications that made her very unwell meaning she could no longer have treatment, we already miss her uncontrollable amounts but I'm so glad that she was surrounded by me and my sister as well as others who loved her deeply and we could be there with her for her last moments just like she was always there for us.
She has inspired me to always be kind and to never give up on my dreams, every step I take now in life she will be with me in thought and in spirit. Before she passed i would always get upset at the thought that she would never see me grow up, build a life for myself or achieve the things I want in life but I now realise there is nothing in the world that could stop my determined mum with her fighting spirit from being there with her kids and cheering them on and I know she will be watching, we will make her proud and when we meet again we will have so much to talk about.
Our mum had the kindest soul, the type of person that would do anything for anybody, everyone was always put before herself. Everyone who knew her knew how bubbly and crazy she was and she always had a smile to lighten up any room she walked into despite anyyhing going on in her own life. The love she had for her grandkids was unmatched and I know she will still guide them through all of their troubles in life.
We have created this Go Fund Me to try and help support our family due to me being so young and as a result of an accident I was recently involved in and not being able to work I am in no place to be able to give her the send off she so deeply deserves.
Thank you in advance for all of your support.
