Pam my heart goes out to you, I can only send ((hugs))) and thoughts

My condolences to you and all the family.
He was one very brave lad, and I'm sure he was happy to get the chance to spend time with his family at the end.

R.I.P. Danny

So sorry to hear your sad news Pam,

Yes Pam, and those other verses are lovely too if you get a chance to read them, the tears will flow as you do, but they will be healing tears.

Thinking of you now and every day ahead,

Pam,,
I have only just seen this thread,and my heart goes out to you as in June we lost our daughter-in law aged 48 to this dreadful disease with children 10 and 9,so know what you are going through.Like Danny she was so brave and positive.My son is left to keep up his job and look after the children as they live in Oz.
The way we have tried to come to terms with it is to celebrate their lives.
He wouldn't want you to be always sad.It is hard,but they say it gets so that you remember all the nice things.
will be thinking of you and the family on Monday.
God Bless

Pam,

I have been thinking of you this morning, as you and the family said goodbye to your dear son. I hope there have been a few moments to smile, during such sadness.

Love,

Once again can i say thank you for all your kind and thoughtful messages.

I found out that Danny planned his funeral to the last song.

The coffin was carried by male family members to the song Daniel by Elton John, the song Fields Of Gold by Sting was played as we reflected on Danny,then true to Danny's form as his coffin was caried out once again by male family members ;ALWAYS LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE from the Life Of Brian rung out.That was my Danny never wanting anyone to be sad.
His funeral was in Tavistock Devon and his friends from the fire brigade made a guard of honour line when we walked in and then out of the church.
It was exactly as he would have wanted and i am so proud to have been his mum.
Love to you all

Pam,

I am pleased that you were able to have the funeral was just as Danny wished, and that you had a few moments to smile in the sadness.

Give yourselves time to grieve and to have tears when they need to be shed. It is an old cliche, but time will heal and those happy days you recall will bring you comfort.

Love to you and all the family,
Elisabeth xx
