Thank you Dave. Your words are a comfort and you are right.RIP Sylvia and @crublue1 , stay strong and it might not feel much at the moment, but you got to spend some quality time with her close to the end, maybe the win on Sunday was just for her.
Thank you so much mate.

My sincere condolences fellow blue.Had a call to say she wasn't answering her phone.
I left work and went round, she had fallen and had passed away.
She had turned the lights and telly off and was on her way to bed.
She fell last week and I offered to stay with her for a few days but she said no.
I feel so guilty, I should have insisted. She was 89.
I'm fucking gutted. If I'd been there it might not have happened.
She was a lovely, kind woman, never judged anyone or anything.
She grew up with nothing, yet spent the latter years of her life working in a charity shop.
Born in alty, as was I, she was a red, and loved United as much as I love city. Her dad was blue, so i guessed she rebelled, as i did. She didn't mind at all that I chose city.
We watched the Derby together on Sunday, I don't begrudge her that win, and she never ever gloated.
We watched it hand in hand, I think she knew her time was near.
She was almost happy for city's successful recent years, she had seen enough red success to last a lifetime.
I'm so sad, when my dad went I didn't lose my dad, because he had dementia, I lost the guy that used to be my dad. Somehow that made it easier.
I've lost a wonderful human being that I'm so lucky to have had as a mum.
Sorry for the long type, I just needed to let it out.
RIP Sylvia
May your memories be wonderful and long cherished until you join hands once again.
Don't be hard on yourself she loved you unconditionally and no doubt it was reciprocated likewise.
Long type don't be imprudent it wasn't nearly long enough.
