‘We were together to the very end, at home, in our own bed and holding hands which is exactly what he wanted.
‘The last conversation we had I asked him how he was feeling and he replied “rough but in love” and that was so him, to the point and choosing to put aside his fears to make me feel cherished and loved.
‘John and I were so grateful to the district nurses who came daily to support us and make him comfortable.
‘Anna was his favourite nurse and the kindness she showed him was beyond, she was a real-life angel.
‘We couldn’t have had those last few days together at home without that care and my mum who has been with us keeping me strong when I needed to stay strong for John.
‘John you are a class act and I will love you forever.’
The couple had kept followers updated throughout his treatment, after she said they were there for her when John went into remission in November 2023.
But in a tragic turn of events, the former banker’s cancer returned in May 2024 and spread to his brain.
