Became a widower on1st August 2024 when my dear wife of 44 years passed away extremely suddenly with oesophageal cancer and we had no warning. She was diagnosed on the Monday of that week and died on the Thursday night. My world has been shattered. It's only because we had 3 horses that I am still functioning in any form. They have to be seen to and is the only reason I get out of bed each morning.
