My Beautiful Son

My lovely gentle kind loving son Alan passed away so suddenly on  Sunday 30/04/06
I have not been able to write about this until now but I have been reading everything on this site for some time. I am still so upset. Alan had never smoked, drank alcohol, done any sort of drugs or ever been overweight. He was an extremely slim, fit healthy man. He loved sport of all sort. He did wall climbing, kick boxing, swimming and running. We are a U.K. family and very close. Alan loved to save his money and travel greatly. In January he told me he had saved enough money to travel around the world on his motorbike with his friends. When he was not traveling he would come and see us almost everyday even if it was only to drink our tea and eat our biscuits. He drove articulated lorries. He was still at work in February but was really struggling. I will write more of his history later. However he had never been ill in his whole life and so on the 1/3/06 when he was told he had 6 months to live we were devastated. We had never heard of cholangio carcinoma. Whilst in the hospital awaiting tests he was still concentrating on keeping fit. Suffice to say within 7 weeks he stopped eating and literally starved to death. He asked if he could come home to stay and would I nurse him to the end. He passed away at 3.00 am in his sleep with no pain, and we all miss him so dreadfully. His many friends all visited him constantly and have been so magnificent, in his own words he was rich beyond belief. love and light alan's mom
