Tears + Smiles

Last week I read a very touching article in the Daily Mail about a husband finally getting his wish to die next to his wife of 46 years after they were separated in hospital. The report states that the two had hardly spent anytime apart during their 46 years of marriage. You can read the full story here.

Matt, 71, was cared for in a hospice after he was told his pancreatic cancer was terminal and nothing more could be done for him. However because of his wives diabetes they couldn’t spend the last months together as she required round the clock care; something which couldn’t be provided for by the hospice. After a large scale campaign by the couples devoted sons Matt and Pat were reunited so they could spend his last few days together. This heart-warming story definitely brings a tear to my eye but also makes me smile too in the knowledge that there is such a thing true in love! :)

Peace & Love X
