Over and Out

Thank you so much everyone for your kind words. I'm ok at the moment with arrangements and admin to focus on but I will feel the loss more once the funeral is over with on 7 October.

One really nice thing for me is that the Funeral Directors will be collecting his ashes and mixing them with those of Wesley the Westie so they can be scattered around Catbells and surrounding fells together.

Catbells itself was not usually our main focus, but the walks we did often seemed to take in Catbells such as Dale Head, High Spy, Maiden Moor (AWR1946 Arthur) then Catbells back to Keswick. It seems appropriate with the views from there to all the fells we did around 360 degrees.

Love

Glen

So very sorry Glen...Beautiful idea to scatter his ashes in a place that has given you both so much joy.

Thank you for the help and support you have given others on this forum. I hope that there are lots of people around to support you at this sad time.

Oh Glen,

It never gets any easier to read of another man down to this terrible disease, I have been thinking of you since your last post and hoping and wishing that Phil would rally .

I am thinking of you at this sad time.

Oh Glen, I am so sorry to see this. Not much comfort to you right now, but the fact that Phil threw himself into the Stampede trial, and was involved in the early stages of Enzo, will hopefully ease the way for the thousands of men who will need treatment in the future. I am thankful that he died peacefully, with your love wrapped around him.

You have seemed so calmly strong since you joined us here - I pray for you to find just a little more of that strength to get you through the coming days, weeks and years.

Take care,
Lyn x

So sorry to hear this terrible news about Phil. So sad to see another man go and it must be such. Difficult time for you. He is at peace and hopefully the funeral can give you a time to let him go to those hills you both loved so much. Thinking of you at this time, glen. RIP PHil.

I've only just seen your post, Glen, and I am sitting here trying to hold back the tears, as Tony is sitting nearby, and your case has been running parallel to ours. I have mentioned you to him and I don't want to have to share your sad news with him now.
I am so very sad for you. Stay strong. I hope you can stay around here and keep us in touch with your feelings and your progress, but I will totally understand if you don't want to. Big hugs.

So sorry to hear of Phils death Glen. Kev followed Phils travails avidly because he seemed to be on a par with him. Kev now struggling through Cabazitaxel but not going well.
I hope you find the strength to cope with such a great loss.

Hi Glen

I'm sorry this comes a bit belated, haven't been around around on the forum recently as needed to temporarily step away. Please accept my sincerest condolences.

All my love
