Thank you so much everyone, you have been fabulous. We have the date set for next Tuesday April 26th for the ceremony ect..Seems so far away and its weird for me how the British system works but its all in motion.
Once again thank you so much for the thoughts and prayers - we do appreciate them greatly.

I am so sorry to hear this, CW. It's small comfort but at least you know he's no longer in that terrible pain. It's a tough time.

My cousin had to go to the ER last week because of terrible pain in her back. They ran all kinds of tests and finally thought it might be diverticulitis. So sent her home for bed rest, pain meds and a liquid diet. Next day they called her in for laparoscopic surgery to remove adhesions (-- and she had a huge family Easter dinner planned). They say if that doesn't work they'll do an MRI to see if its a disc.
What's worrying is that it's taking so long to put a name to it. I feel really bad for my poor aunt.

I just found out via email that a friend of the family passed away in his sleep last night.  They live in Paris and he’s left behind two teenage daughters and his wife.  I’m just stunned.  (He has some older children as well, but I've never actually met them)

Sorry for the family. Must be a terrible shock for all.
