Kate and I appreciated you and Nikki meeting us earlier this year, at short notice, to talk through your journey following your diagnosis, as I start mine, introduced through your amazing Dad, John. We left feeling we´d met an amazing person in you, so much joy and positive energy, who despite the curved ball, accepted what life provided, the good, fun, uncertainty's and sometimes injustice of it. I´d imagine you´d set a beautiful example of a loving dad, partner son and friend, and will be remembered so well for it. RIP Phil. It was a joy to meet you. Wishing all the best to your loved ones
