Cath was my constant.
From the day I was born, she was there: guide and warning, ally and opponent. Whatever path she took, I followed, from music lessons and university, to marriage and children. I was her bridesmaid and she was mine.
But now, the constant is gone. The rules of the universe are broken and the sums don't add up.
I will learn to live in this new world, and you, wherever you are, I'm sure Granny will let you make her a cup of tea.
