Sending similar thoughts out, terrible to hear, but applauding also the messages posted since.

There's always more we could do or say for those around us including own parents and kids, and then for ourselves - so keep trying to do them. We ourselves are normally the only thing stopping us making those sometimes small steps.

Last I'll comment on this but just got back from Shropshire having put the poor lad in the ground and spent 48hrs on the lash with old friends trying to rationalise this. It simply can't be rationalised. It's fookin heartbreaking

It's certainly changed my view on life:

1. Don't let the small, insignificant things drag you down
2. Have no regrets and don't put things off
3. Don't take your friends for granted

cheers all :beer:

Sorry to read all this mate, I can certainly sympathise as my Grandad got rushed in today with the Big C, just waiting on some news now, we thought it was all under control but appears it may be not...

Trying to keep chin up at present as per your positive comments!
