Hi Pinnacle, condolences on your mum’s passing. It didn’t sound the most pleasant final few months for her with the falling, but 92 is a very good age. My dad died in August. He’d have been heartbroken to see what a drinker I was and would’ve been in a state of constant worry. Admittedly I was a little further ahead in my sobriety (eight months), but I didn’t feel the need to drink to mourn or celebrate his life. He definitely wouldn’t have wanted that. Your mum will want the same for you. Good luck in the coming weeks and condolences again.
