I'm working away from home for a few days… Linda will be in the safe care of Beth and a succession of care assistants so I know she'll be in good hands but parting is still tough.
Linda gives me a hug (one of those Williams 'whole body' sort of hugs) and says she will miss me. She will I know, but not for long.
I return the hug with “I love you sister.” with hardly a hesitation she replies “Me too!!”
So was that 'she loves me too' or 'she loves Linda too'?
Probably both!
