Oh Margaret I am so sorry to hear this. Very very sad news.

Maybe get one of your friends to telephone the local social worker (assistant social) as he/she will be able to help you with the necessary paperwork etc. The Mairie will have the phone number.

I will be thinking of you.

Margaret, I know of someone near Eymet - he’s part of the non-conformist church there and he’s happy to contact you and see and help if he can. Please let us know how you are. Separately, I’ve been in touch with a women’s network on Facebook (LIFT) and there are several offers of help and - from those who are too distant - messages of support, love and prayers for you. Please know that you’re not alone. Let me know if you want to follow up on any of these contacts. x

Probably when all the running about is over, I think it will hit me very hard?
