It was 3 years ago today that Bert was diagnosed with his AML. he fought hard struggled through his chemo which caused all sorts of problems. He achieved remission and we were delighted. However, exactly a year later to the day he relapsed. Devastated was an understatment. They found him a Bone Marrow Donor and got him into remission yet again. We went to the Beatson in Glasgow the week after they told us he was in remission to prepare for his pre transplant chemo, only to be told that "you have active Leukaemia in your blood, go home you will be lucky if you have weeks left".
He lasted 12 weeks his last 2 weeks he was so heavily sedated he did not even know I was with him and he passed away on the 25th Feb 2010.
I still miss him so much almost 20 months later, xxxx
