Dad passed away at 5am this morning. We were with him from noon yesterday and he was comfortable the whole time having been given diamorphine and midazolam among other things.
He spent his last days in St Cuthbert's Hospice in Durham who have been absolutely fantastic - the Hospice is beautiful and the staff are the most amazing people I have ever met - the NHS staff have NOTHING on these guys.
So many of you have provided information, support, ears and advice and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
I remember how lost I felt when I joined the site and can honestly say that the most accurate information I have been given was provided by you guys - Thank You!!
I will be busy over the next few weeks but will be back in touch with you all soon,
Stay strong guys, make the most of every day
