It is with the heaviest of hearts that I write this, my amazing husband lost his fight to the dreadful disease that is Mesothelioma last Friday - he was diagnosed in the 9 June 2023 & passed on 31 January 2025. He fought so hard he had immunotherapy but this was stopped after 5 sessions, chemotherapy only tolerated 3 sessions & got severe kidney injury, he then commenced on a Phase 1 Clinical Trial on 2 December 2024, sadly things progressed very quickly whilst he was on the trial.
The problem I have now is with the Coroner’s they have set an inquest date for 8 April - what they haven’t yet done is open & adjourn the case - I have been told they will ‘probably’ do this next week. In the meantime we cannot make any funeral arrangements at all.
I just wondered if this has happened anywhere else - we are in the Greater Manchester area. All I want to do is grieve & arrange a funeral for my husband who worked so hard all his life but sadly had the misfortune to work with asbestos as a 17 year old apprentice. Xx
