Sadly Tom reached the end of his journey through life yesterday afternoon after a week of struggling to keep going.
He didn’t want to leave me and fought to stay but in the end gave in.
A lovely loving man who never hurt a fly.
He is now with the angels and finally at peace after a 5 year struggle.
We will all miss him.

Aww Briony, I'm so very sorry. Everything you wrote about him over the years showed what a lovely man he was. You'll all have such wonderful memories of him. At least he's not suffering anymore, nor you feeling helpless at not being able to ease his suffering. Bless you xx
