In December last year Jessica passed away from cancer, only 41 years old. I know Jessica from the riding club, and she also rented and apartment in my parents house many years ago after my grandmother who used to live in it died. Jessica also worked as a carer for my grandmother before she died so she knew my whole family. The funeral was very sad but also very beautiful.
Viktor all dressed up for the funeral. He must be taking after me a bit, liking being out and about doing stuff because as always when we are out he is happy.
After the ceremony we were invited to a buffe meal at a hotel in the city and later on 8 of us girls from the riding club who were friends with Jessica went out for dinner together. Only 2 of us live in Luleå today, the rest had travelled to Luleå for the funeral. We thought it was a good opportunity to get together and end a sad day with something fun! just wish that Jessica had been there with us...
Viktor started to cry when my meal came out but when I handed him over to Lisa so that I could cut up my meat, and eat with one hand while holding Viktor, he stopped crying straight away so Lisa very nicely held him so I could eat.
Viktor went in to a really deep sleep in Lisas arms so after a while she could put him in the pram and he slept there for the rest of the night.
When the other girls went to the boat to spend the rest of the night there Viktor and I went home after joining them for a while in the line up to get in. The evening was absolutley beautiful with the midnight sun and just over 20 degrees!
