    Dear Emma, just read the sad news about your beloved Matthew. It is impossible to find the right words but I just wanted to say that the love and devotion you shared and the brave fight you both put up have been inspiring to all who knew you. I hope you find solace and comfort from the love and support of your family and friends in the coming months and that eventually the pain you are suffering now will ease a little. I will light a candle for Matthew tonight.

    Emma. The news about Matthew has come as a shock, it has all happened so fast. I think Susan has said everything I was thinking. Matthew was an inspiration to us all, he fought an hard against this tumour right up to the end. He is now free of all the pain. Your pain will ease and you will have lots of happy memories. Big hug and lots of love to you and the girls. Thinking of you
    Lots of Love

    Hello All.

    Emma, so sorry to hear the news. Matthew was an inspiration to all, and he put up a good fight. My prayers are with you and your family at this time.

    I haven't posted for quite awhile, things hadn't been going well, and I had been busy helping my mother. Sadly, my father passed away on Friday night, April 3rd, at 11:41pm. My mother, my sister, my son and I all at his side. It was very peaceful, he just stopped breathing.

    What a horrible disease, what a horrible thing for us all to go thru. I think of you all often, and will pray for all. Thank you for your insight, friendship, and comfort that I received from you and this site, from so far away.

    Emma I have just heard the sad news about Matthew, he will be sorely missed. I knew you both for only a short time but the love and devotion you both held for each other shone through. This is a terrible time for you and your family and yet you still find time to let all of us know, you are amazing I just hope I am half as strong as you when the time comes for Rob. Love to you and the girls, xxx

    Carrie, hope you are ok too. I still can't believe how quickly all of this has come about, months of living from day to day and then in the space of a week we have lost 2 amazing guys. you are in my thoughts always. xxx

    Gayle hope you and Martin are well, not planning any more holidays are you?? Take care, xx

    Lesley give your Dad a big 60th hug from me and hope he enjoys his day and you too.xx

    Julie how are you and Stephen, well I hope, not nice having to pass on news like that but you did it nicely. Thinking of you both xxx

    Rob is getting a bit stronger each day, he came out with me yesterday for an hour and again today, went to the garden centre bought some plants for the tubs and he planted them when we got home. I know it's not much but he hasn't shown any interest in anything for so long that to me it is a major step in the right direction, lets hope it continues.

    Love to all you dedicated people, sorry I can't remember all the names but I will in time.
