A beautiful day to set Ric free

AKELA,

My heart  goes out to you and  I  am  sorry  for your loss, I met  someone in the  PET scan  at  Taunton and  her  husband  was  at  his  wits end with throat cancer he was a  PE instructor in the  Army. Cancer does not care for anyone at least as you say you can set your husband free.

I wish you well for your moving on.

Sending you brave hugs xx

Will be thinking of you  Akela. 
I hope that you get some comfort from setting Ric free, knowing his wishes & what he would want so well. It feels to me like a final act of love

Thank you everyone.

It was a hard thing to do and I had a few tears whilst we were watching the tanks on the practice runs. The last time we went, no one was out so it was like they turned up for him, I drove around the village Barack's a bit with him, a last final tour and chat. 

I then scattered him around a challenger 1. He just loved his tanks. He is back to his army and part of where he grew up. I scattered his bit of his mum and dad so they are all together. I have saved a few ashes because I am.undecided on jewellery.

I got stopped a guard near the tank but he was more than happy to let me carry on and checked I was ok because I went alone. My turn to say a proper goodbye. I know he will be happy there, he is not too far away and I feel.i have let him go free, which was him. 

All in all, it was a good day xxx

Tough day but in some respects a good one, now you can know you did your bit for him and he is where he will be with friends..
