Story
My Dad finally picked up the courage to tell me the worst news, he had lung cancer. After waiting 4 months for it to be staged , it was more horrific news, Stage 4 and the cancer had taken a firm hold of him.
He now has pneumonia and only has a few short weeks to live (at best)
His biggest fear is dying alone in Birmingham and he wanted to spend his last days with his grandchildren and family in the Isle of Man.
The hopice have a bed for him and before he deteriorated further I found myself agreeing to fund an air ambulance.
I couldn't deny any man his dying wish and certainly not my own Dad, I'm heartbroken.
If anyone can find it in their heart to help no matter how small, every penny will help.
Thank you so much 💖

7 years agoJust going over all the well wishes and I'm still blown away by the generosity of every single one of you beautiful people . My Dad was flown in the very next day but sadly he gave up his fight on the 5th Feb. Thanks to you he made it, AND he died a happy man (despite that terrible disease). He was right where he wanted to be, with me by his side, which meant the world to us both. I wanted to let you know that a donation of £1050 was also made to the Isle of Man Hospice. Thank you all again so very much. With love. Sharon
