Joined: Dec 2004 Posts: 18 | My dearest Husband lost his battle for oral cancer on Wednesday 12th July. He gave everything he had 100percent in his quest to stay with our family but was sadly beaten by this horrible disease. Thankyou to this web site, you have been of great support during the three years that my husband has been in treatment, I rarily post, but often read everybody's stories which gave me sometimes inspirational thoughts on how we should approach new steps in my husbands treatment.
Rest in peace now sweetheart,
Love charmxxxx
