A friend and former colleague of mine recently lost her husband to cancer. He had been fighting it for about two years but lost the battle. The service that was held was beautiful but it saddened me to see the loss of such a good man and to see my friend suffer so much grief.
They didn’t have any children together, but they did have McDuff – a very spirited Westie – so I took some comfort that McDuff would at least be there for her.
I was gob smacked when just a few days later I received an email from my friend (I was travelling at the time.) that McDuff had passed away. She had noticed he wasn’t feeling well and had taken him to the vet. 24 hours later, he was gone. To cancer.
Sometimes it’s a very cruel world.
