    The beaverbrook 10k went well in spite of being soaked to the skin at the start! Plodded on and finished in 93 minutes which was better than I expected. I broke down and cried at the end of the race wishing Ed could be with me for a hug.

    Manchester next week and will try to break the 90 minutes. Looking forward to the atmosphere, bands playing and run through car washes for showers, just got to do that,lol.

    Today at 2.40pm my beloved Ed passed away. It was so so peaceful and painfree that i feel happy for him. He had had enough and just couldnt fight anymore. Ed had been unable to communicate for 4 days, not even squeeze my hand but the last words he heard were me telling him I loved him and me kissing him and he just went with a sigh. Somehow I will carry on but the worst part was leaving him at the Hospice when I just…

    This roller coaster is a 24/ 7 ride, Like the weather - sunshine, showers and outright thunderstorms all in one day! Last Sunday I thought it couldnt get any worse. Ed just clung to my hand and it was all I could do to go to the loo. He was cold, then hot, shaking, light headed and confused - very frightened. We spent most of the day in bed and I held him, reliving so much of our life in my mind during those hours, but…
