So very sorry to read your post, my heart goes out to you both, there is nothing I can say to help or makes things any better. My darling Rab died towards the end of February, it certainly is a cruel disease. Thinking of you, Diana

I'm so sorry for you both! It's so cruel & seems to creep up so suddenly! I lost my beautiful mum early March! It's just so devastating but I'm glad to hear Bill seems pain free! Praying for you both! Lots of love & good wishes! X

So sorry to read that Bill has deteriorated. I cared for my husband at home with virtually no help at all as he went downhill very quickly. This is a devestating disease. I'm glad that Bill is pain free. I get great comfort from Neils much loved page. An online memorial. Take a peek

Don't forget that we are here to support you as you move through Bills journey and ultimately onto your own

Sending much love

So sorry to hear about Bill's deterioration, it seems so sudden. It's good he's having good care and is pain free.Try to look after yourself as well. My Mum is going back for another scan as there was another shadow , when she was xrayed and she has a pain where the shadow is. We can only hope it hasn't spread but as you've said it's a cruel disease. My thoughts are with you at this time Xx
