Story
Dad, was diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis 10 years ago, unfortunately there is no cure for it.
On the 18th June 2024, Dad had a stroke, which weakened his lungs, unfortunately this made his condition worse and eventually caused him to catch pneumonia. Dad’s fight with the disease ended on the 1st July.
