Story

Paul was tragically taken from us Wednesday 15th May 2019. He was having a special day with his family, He meet his unborn child for the first time at our first scan as I was 14 weeks pregnant. The children went swimming and then Paul's car started playing up. We took the car to the garage and Paul left to go catch the bus to go to the vets. Paul never made the vets at the bus stop a vein burst in his brain which made him collapse. He managed to say his first name before he went unconscious. I was told the devastating news they was nothing they could do and prepare for the worse. In intensive care I was asked if we were willing for Paul to be an organ donor. Being a caring man he was always putting others first and helping many we decided as a family to donate. He has helped to saved 9 peoples lives and a child with a heart defect. We are asking for support to help myself and my children and our newborn child. If anyone would like to help in any way we would kindly appreciate your help for our children and the newborn, Paul was a landlord for many years and chef as well as a kitchen manager. It was our special day seeing our unborn child and then our worst within a few hours."

Paul had life insurance but didn't pay out as had moved house and he missed two payments but was not notified of this. I am reliant on the support of friends and family to get through these difficult times. I and Paul have worked all our life, I will now have to bring up four children under the age of 13. Nothing will take away the shock and the sadness that was such a beautiful day turned into our worse nightmare. I will be returning back to work in July as its something I've always done even though I will struggle work and 4 children I will find a way. My widow pension only covers 18 months not 18 year no more with the government we are under now. I will struggle financially as I dont qualify for help with our newborn even though Paul died Tradically.
