My beautiful mum 🩷

I posted her a few weeks ago talking about how i am persuing legal action with the funeral directors who messed everything up with my mum. I am at a complete loss. I have tried legal advice and basically it is my word against theirs, unless i took pictures of my mum in the coffin to prove what they done to her then i really dont have a leg to stand on. I am devasted that i can’t get any justice for my mum. I know i can say atleast i tried, but im devastated that i cant actually get justice for her. I went the other day to get my mums ashes and bring her home, so she can now rest and it is very bitter sweet. Im somewhat happy i have my mum home now, but im beyond upset that the only way i can have my mum is if she is in an urn. I really dont know how im going to recover from losing her. Everyday is a challenge. She was my best friend and everyone used to joke and ask when we was going to finally cut the cord (im 32šŸ˜‚) my reply was always ā€œwe will never cut the cordā€. Im completely heartbroken and im just trying to channel my heartbreak into something a little more positive. I have 2 little girls and im trying to channel everything i have into being the best mum i can to them. If im half the mum to them little girls that my mum was to me then i have succeeded. So as im at a standstill will the legal side of it im just trying to focus on being the best mum i can be and keeping my mums memory alive. I have both mum and dads ashes at home so i know they will be enjoying eternity together. Sorry this is a bit long, this is the only place i can get things off my chest properly. Thanks for reading x

Hi,

I’m so sorry to hear you’ve had to deal with all this with the FD and are at a standstill with the legal side.

It is terrible what happened to you and I hope that something can be done to get justice for you and your Mum.

I lost my mum last Sunday and I feel so lost with it all.

One saying which is helping to bring me some comfort is:

ā€œTo live in hearts we leave behind is not to dieā€

Sending you so much love at this time x

Hi @Col92, I read your story in an earlier post & again I’m so so sorry that this has happened to you. You have your mum home now & she will be able to rest in peace.
With that level of incompetence & negligence you can’t be the only person this has happened to. Can you see reviews on Google of this FD as this may be a way to reach out to others they have done this to? If there is a group of you it’s likely that your complaints will be taken more seriously.
LBC have a legal hour on Sat & Sun nights at 9pm. If you were brave enough to call in I’m sure anyone who heard your story would want to help & give advice even if the legal hour presenter had not come across this before. You aren’t the first person this has happened to & sadly you won’t be the last.
Remember your mum lives on in you & your girls :people_hugging:
