Our beloved children Tim, Jocelyn and Glenda have been such a strength to me in these difficult days. They are so tuned in to how I am feeling and I just love them very much. I know it is so far away for them, being in Melbourne and also not being able to talk to their Dad. I've had lovely comforting phone calls from them and their wisdom and understanding is amazing. It just isn't easy at the moment for any of us.

Tom and Amy are amazing to. They are loving and supporting Glenda and Tim and, as much as they can, Roger and myself. Not easy when big decisions need to be made.

Thank you my very treasured family. I truly need you at this difficult time.
