In fact, she said there is no joy in it for neither she or her son, who will be 12 years old on Christmas Day. The ritual of having her father, Phillip Brown, around celebrating his grandson’s birthday and her preparing a feast for them to enjoy, will be no more as he passed away suddenly in September. This year, she said the things that she used to cook for him – mutton, fish she doesn’t even want to look about them anymore either because the memories are too fresh and the pain just too much.
