My blog, will talk about my diagnosis of cancer and detail how I may be feeling, what treatment I'm being subjected to(!), when I'm having treatment and other things which my friends and family might find of interest.Please feel free to write in my guest book which I'll have a look at periodically.
I was very sorry to hear of David's demise. I worked with him many years ago at Wells & Hind. My only memories are of a very kind and friendly person. more…
Thank you Jennifer, it does mean a lot when anyone takes the time to read about the ordeal we have faced. Even now when I read what we have written about it reduces me back to tears again.
I hate what cancer has done to my life and how much pain it put David through and more than anything, I hate the fact that David has gone from my more…
Sarah~ I am so sorry to read that David, after a most courageous battle, lost his life to cancer. I came across your blog by accident today and found myself, rather than clicking out of it, reading every word and feeling the emotions of both David and yourself. My family had a recent cancer scare with my younger sister- thankfully it turne more…
FOOTPRINTS
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. Each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; one belonging to him, and the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the f more…
May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand more…
What makes your response so precious is the fact that you have taken the time to read David's blog and leave me messages of support. It renews my faith in people. Thank you. more…
Sarah,
I'm not sure what to say other than I am so so sorry for your loss- David was such a warm and generous man and I have many happy memories of times at Horseball that David features heavily in.
I'm sure his death will leave a huge gap in so many people's lives.

We have just read your post today Sunday and are very sorry and sad to hear the news. We thought David was a wonderful kind man, we will all greatly miss him. xxx more…
I am so sorry to learn of David's untimely passing. David and I used to worked together at Bright Richards & Flewitt many many years ago and shared the same birthday. My thoughts are with you. more…
Obviously nothing I can say will make any difference. I am dreadfully sorry and send you all my love. If you need me, you know where I am.

If I could have a lifetime wish a dream that would come true.
I'd pray to God with all my heart for yesterday and you.
A thousand words can't bring you back I know because I've tried
And neither will a million tears because I've cried and cried.
You left behind my broken heart and happy memories too.
But it's not the m more…
It's lovely to hear from you Sarah and thank you for your support. I know it means a lot to David that so many people are out there thinking of him.

There's tears running down my face as I read this- what heartbreaking news. You are both incredibly brave and strong people, I think of you often and hope you know that there are so many other people that do no matter how long it's been or how far away they are.
Love to both of you x x more…
My thoughts are with you and its absolutely heartbreaking hearing what the two of you are having to go through. I send you both lots and lots of love.
I'm very proud to be part of such a strong, adoring family and I'm very proud of my brother for doing his bit supporting my Uncle to fight this harrowing disease.
Hi, i heard today that Fiona will be visiting this weekend- she and her Mum keep me informed, along with the Blog. I think of you and Audrey- pray she's no longer driving ! - every day, and also of Dick. It may- i hope- bring a smile to your face to know that i can still do a perfect voice impression of Dick even after all this time: " David ." more…
Thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart. Yes please use what you want from the blog site or elsewhere to persuade people to donate. I am wondering if it is possible for me to donate - sounds a bit strange - my donating I mean. There have been other friends who have used the Race For Life etc to raise funds for Cancer resea more…
I'm glad you are both supportive of me doing this run for David and you, and everyone else who are suffering with cancer. I do realize that it is only a small effort but, as you say, if it helps one person then that has to be something.
My page is set up and I wondered if you wanted to post the link on this blog more…
Hey Matt, it's very kind of you to go to such effort for David and I. We would be more than grateful if you did the 10k run. So many people are suffering with cancer and if your efforts can help just one person then it is well and truly worth while. I was saddened when our Macmillan Nurse told us that there were over 600 patients on her list alo more…
I hear about things from Dad and Gran and from checking this blog. Everything you are going through is simply awful and I wanted to do something other than send a message. I'm planning to do a 10K run for Cancer Research in October. I'd like to run this for you both and hoped this would be ok.
