by the minute. Been thinking of my family lately, and realised just how many of them have passed over. The way they are leaving, I'll be the only one left,,,,,,,,I'm beginning to feel very lonely. |

Me too TW, especially now I've lost my brother, a few years ago mind, but when I look around and see them all going one by one, I'm starting to think, Christ, it'll be my turn next. |

ditto Teresa I remember my great-gran, she died when I was 5. In the last 10 years, I've lost a nephew at 18, then my sister at 45, then my dad - makes you wonder why I'm still here. Angela |

I feel very lucky, I still have my grandmother who is 89 and both my parents. I was heart broken when my grandfather died but it makes me feel that I shoul treasure the precious moments that I spend with my grandmother and parents all the more. |

I have been head of the family for the last couple of years - partly why I joined genes. I thought I was the last person who had met my grandmother or could remember my mother's tales. Anne |
