  First name(s) Muriel Sheila Last name Dodds Sex Female Birth day 19 Birth month 2 Birth year 1930 Death quarter 1 Death year 2006 District Northumberland West District number 6801A Register number 7A Entry number 101 Date of registration mm/yy 0106 County Northumberland Country England Record set England & Wales Deaths 1837-2007 Category Birth, Marriage & Death (Parish Registers) Subcategory Civil Deaths & Burials Collections from Great Britain, England Following a stroke on Saturday January 7th, my Mother passed away on January 11th 2006. Over the previous two years she had suffered a series of strokes from each of which she seemed to make reasonable recovery. However early in December 2005 she suffered another major stroke, which left her very weak, tired and emotional. On evening of Saturday 7th January she fell, striking her head and breaking her left arm. In hospital she was somewhat confused and both my father and the doctors’ initially thought that this was due to a concussion as she had suffered serious bruising to the left eye and side of her face. However following a CAT scan on the Tuesday it was evident that she had suffered a massive stroke and this was now affecting her left side. Early on the Wednesday morning my father was called into the hospital as her condition had started to deteriorate and before I could get to Newcastle she passed away. According to her wishes, her funeral was held at Saltwell Crematorium in Gateshead, Tyne & Wear, which was the place where her mother and father had been cremated. She leaves behind my father, her husband of 51 years, her brother, Gerald, my wife, Fran, and I, as well as many other relations, both family and through marriage. When you are a child you think that your parents are immortal, as you get older you begin to see their flaws and frailties and then you realise that they are all to susceptible to illness. I am fortunate in that there were no outstanding issus between my mother and I, we had respect and love for one another and where our viewpoints differed, we respected each other’s opinion. The last time I got to speak to her was on my Birthday and I was looking forward to talking to her again on the Sunday after to let her know what I’d been up to.
