In memory of my husband I have posted this on behalf of Dolores. We at Breast Cancer Care would also like to add our condolences on this sad loss.

Dear All

I wanted to write to say that my very brave husband died on 19th March this year. He was just 48 years old and we have two beautiful children aged 12 and 6. The hardest thing was telling my children that their father had died and this fell on my daughter’s 12th birthday. He worked full time right up until a week before his death when he was hospitalised through severe pain. He never complained and lived every day to the full.

Such courage I have never seen before and his strength has kept me going this past few weeks. He was diagnosed in Dec 2004 and really never got a break from the cancer. He struggled through 3 types of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, tamoxifen, mastectomy - you name it - he seemed to have had it !

Next Monday 14th May would have been his 49th birthday and I shall be returning to work then. Even though my life seems so empty without him I know that he would want me and the children to go on and enjoy our lives. He will live on in our memories every day. He is a household name and will always be with us. On Monday I intend to bring the children for a meal where we all used to go and celebrate his day with a glass of wine in his memory.

Love and miss you lots Shaun. God Bless. xxx

Sorry Dolores, Sorry to hear about your husband Shaun.
I have been following his progress since you first posted in June last year, and was shocked to hear of his death.
I am sure that he would want you and your family to go for the meal at the place you used to go to celebrate his birthday in his memory.
I hope you retain all the pleasant memories you had with him.
