Story

My dad found out in 2008, he had a rare terminal cancer in the bowl but they couldn't do anything for him. It was in a place they couldn't operate, he didn't even have chemotherapy or radiotherapy. It was too far gone and spread .It was very hard to see him go down hill so quickly with in a few months, I tried my best to help my mum as well through this horrible time knowing your dad was going to die but didn't believe it was happening to my  lovely dad. He was my hero, a great man in my life and soul of the party. He died at home in his sleep as my mum slept next to him; luckily my brother stayed that night so mum wasn't alone.

R.I.P It still hurts that you are not here with us all, I love you <3
