My father has melanoma (skin cancer) and has recently been told it is stage IV and terminal. This blog is a record of his progress for family and friends.

Thankyou all so much
A bit of time has passed now but i just wanted to say thank you to everyone who made the time to come to Dad's funeral. We were overwhelmed by how many people came. I want to also say a special thank you to everyone who donated in Dad's memory. We were collecting in aid of the Heart of Kent Hospice, who are the organisation who helped us care for Dad. Soon i should know the total amount and i will of course post it here.

Dad's Funeral
Dad's funeral will be held at 11am on Monday 6th December at St Peter's church. Everybody is welcome, so if you want to come, please do. Dad loved nothing better than a gethering, except possibly one well-furnished with rum, so we will then adjourn to a nearby pub, as per his instructions.
Dad has left the building
The undertakers, having neatly avoided the ditch and made an impressive five point turn on the drive in their long vehicle, have now taken Dad. We are going to collect his death certificate and register his death. When the funeral details are confirmed I will post them here. We welcome anyone interested in coming.
