Just before seven this morning I was startled awake hearing Keith shout my name. I was sure I must have dreamt it but it left me unsettled and I got up and rang my son Simon. He took me to the hospice early but on the way their the hospice rang to see if I was coming in as Keith's breathing had taken a turn for the worse. He became ill around 6:30 am and the staff at the hospice thought this was the end.
My lovely Keith sadly lost his battle with cancer tonight. It was peaceful and both boys and their wives were with him at the end. I will miss him dreadfully, as will the family but at last he is free of pain and stress.
Goodbye my love
