Sorry to hear that you're Mum died last night Bengt. Sounds like you knew it was coming., which we think won't be such a shock. Like myself some years ago though, I felt exactly the same because I too thought I was as prepared as mentally as I could be but like you say it hit you like a sledge hammer, which is a shock in itself isn't it?
Grieving is many times a personal experience, and when it's all said only much time filled pain helps heal.
I'll be thinking of you and your families tomorrow as I sit in front of my bike and put that mud flap on my bike cos whilst this might sound silly, I now now realise even though you were preparing for the inevitable you were still on here helping us Aussies and Kiwis by posting pics of your bike and links to the seller amongst other things.
Your a good bloke Bengt and on behalf of us here down under, I and we send our condolences to you at this painful time in your life.
All the best mate and I hope it's not too long before perhaps a sense of relief washers over you knowing your mum is now not suffering anymore and is in a better place.
All the best
Staffo
