Along with several other books a paperback by Peter James was given to our local Oxfam recently. It was bought last week and the new owner put out an appeal on our local FB to track down the donor. Inside the front cover was a very personal message from a lady to her family [quite rightly not shared]. Social media worked its magic and one of her daughters came forward. She and her sister lost their Mum three years ago and have been sorting out her stuff. They had no idea that the message was there when they dropped the books off and think that their Mum wrote it a couple of hours before she died. They have been reunited with the book and said it was like having a Mother's day message from her💗

Nice bit of happy news Aril. x
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to share something good for a change. Arilx
DeleteWhat a lovely story. I am glad they got their book back.
ReplyDeleteA happy ending. Arilx
DeleteQueue very strange music (X files or something). I'm not sure I could handle a message from beyond the grave as it were. Mind you Mothers Day was never celebrated in our family - father maintained the view that our mother and his wife should be honoured and respected and told she is loved every day.
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit cynical about Mother's day which is why we keep it low key. My Mum loves liquorice so sweeties it was. Arilx
