Morning everyone. I was not sure if I should say anything about this, but on 7th January my husband died after an 18 month battle with cancer. I was at his bedside when he passed, at the hospice. It was profoundly moving, and my heart is in pieces, but I am glad that his suffering is over, as he was very poorly towards the end. Our son Callum took a year out from University to help out, and he has been an enormous source of comfort and love. I know none of you knew Iain, but he loved to drive my Coupe because it was so unusual and "kept them guessing" because he was such a hippy in appearance but then he'd be driving this flash looking motor! He was my soul mate and I don't know how I will live without him. His dog is also grieving, poor Snoop looks lost and lonely. Like me!

Terrible news, never nice to read. Not much to do apart from remember and be thankful you had time together and forge on Annie....

Hi Annie, so sorry to hear your news. It's wonderful at the same time that you are able to recall all those precious shared memories that might never have been, also that your son has been right at the coal face alongside you, this is very special.
I admire your courage in posting on here about such a personal matter, which has on occasion been the recourse for a few other members also. It's also humbling and reassuring that you consider this forum to be an appropriate place to share your loss, and I believe your husband will pass on strength to you.
Please accept my sympathy from afar,
Simon

I am so very sorry for your loss, cancer has also struck at our family in the last couple of years, on more than one occasion, and whilst this may at best be simply the thoughts of a passing online stranger, my very best wishes and thoughts are for you and your son.

Sorry to hear of the loss you have all suffered. Although the pain lessens it never totally goes.

There are no words for times like this, only the sincerest and deepest of sorrow. I do hope you can take comfort from close family and friends. Take care.
