    My darling wife Vicki passed away on 28th January at the age of 35.  She fought so bravely for two and half years despite continuous bad news.  She passed peacefully in the hospice, I looked into her eyes when she opened them for the last time.  I know my life will never be the same again but also know that she will be waiting for me when my time comes. 

    She was my angel, the love of my life and I will miss her so much.  I will never say goodbye to her.  I am lucky that she chose to spend her life with me, we had 10 years of very happy marriage and for that I am grateful.

    Sleep well angel, until we meet again xxxxxxx

    With love to you all

    Craig

    Craig I am so sorry for your loss.  There are no words that I can think of to comfort you.  Know that you will one day be with her again.  I have lost two very dear people to me to cancer so I think cancer stinks.  Cheris the memories that you have they will get you through the hard times.

    "I looked into her eyes when she opened them for the last time."

    How beautiful.  As your angel was leaving this world, the last thing she saw was the love in her dear husband's eyes.  What a beautiful memory for you.

    I am so sorry for you.  I pray that you have strength and peace in the coming days as you deal with the loss of your angel.

    Thank you all for your lovely messages.  I went to see Vicki today in the chapel of rest, she is wearing a red dress that I bought her before Christmas, she looked so lovely, so peaceful.  Ive always called her my angel for a very long time, today it was easy to see why.

    My husband and I are so very sorry to hear of your loss.  Hold your memories tight and know that your love and support was the most important thing to her during these last two difficult years.  The two of you knew love.  What a wonderful and rare thing that is.

    Craig,

    Very sorry for your loss. I'm glad your faith will keep you strong until you see her again.  Being stage IV myself, I strongly believe in God and an afterlife.  Although everyone has their own beliefs,  I've read so many books confirming this.

    Peace and comfort

    I do believe that I will see her again one day and I do believe that she will watch over me and our son.  She lost her mum 10 months ago to lung cancer.  Vicki was in the same room in the hospice as her mum and they both left this life in that room.  She took comfort from being in there, comfort that her mum was waiting for her.  They are together now, the world is lesser place without her, but heaven just got a little better. 

    I also want to say how amazing you all are.  Each of you continues to fight this awful disease, yet you can spare a moment to send words of comfort to me.  You incredible, brave, inspiring people

    With love

    Craig xx

    Craig, I'm so sorry.  May you be given comfort, and all the blessings you deserve for so devotedly loving your dear wife when she needed you most.

    Life is beautiful, and I'm sure she would want you to make the most of it.  You will hold her again, and she will be perfectly whole and free from pain.

    God be with you.
