On March 30th, my mum was diagnosed with acute leukaemia. On April 4th, she passed. On March 31st, I flew to France to be by her side for what would turn out to be her last 5 days.

Although it is still raw and excruciatingly painful, I thought I would share how my organising skills have helped in this situation.
