Hi Jules,

I hope you will meet others here who have experience of inquests into the death of a loved one, particularly from mesothelioma.

This must be a little stressful for you I guess it brings back a lot of memories so I just wanted to send you a virtual hug.

I hope everything will go well.

Lucie

Thanks so much Lucie. It does re-open some memories that I thought I had 'dealt with' as am obviously been asked a variety of questions regarding his job history and where he thought he 'got if from'. I have been informed that I do not need to attend as there is  no dispute over cause of death but apparently they have to have an inquest due to it being an industrial disease. Not sure yet when the date will be set for but if a satisfacory conclusion is reached then I will be able to get the full death certificate which I suppose will legally mark the end of hubby's journey.  It just feel's rather weird .

Hope you are keeping okay and the driving is coming along well.  Jules x

It must indeed be a very weird feeling and a lot for you to have to deal with - both on a practical and emotional level. As for the driving, it's coming along... I am very stubborn I will persevere :)

If I spot anyone on the forum talking about inquests, I will send them your way as I hope you get to talk to someone who has been through all this!

Lucie

Cheers Lucie, much appreciated.

With true grit and determination you will get there with the driving I am sure.  Thanks again. Jules

Hi Jules - just came across your thread and am sorry to see that you and your famiily still have things to face. I understand the need for an inquest but it must be so very difficult to not be able to put these things behind you.  I presume that you have no idea when the inquest will be?

I know that you realise we are all here for you Jules, but lets hope the inquest is over soon and hubby can be remembered for the love and security that he brought to you and his children/grandchildren.  Take good care x

Hi Max

Thank you for your support and kind words - you are really something else; I hope  you know that, Despite feeling decidedly grotty yourself here you are being nice to me - it brought me close to tears I can tell you.

I have only been told that the Coroner is close to arranging the inquest and they needed me to sign a form (as I am not required to attend) and also give them some background information which I have done.Now the waiting goes on, hey ho.

Your take good care of yourself .... no actually let others do that for you and hope you are more comfortable just now.  As always you are in my thoughts.  Bigs hugs sent your way.  Jules xx
