Hi mum,

It´s been a while, been thinking
about you a lot lately.

My poor husband, Tim has stage 4 colon cancer.

It´s so hard mum, I´m so scared
Tim is not going to make it.

Please look after him.

Love you and miss you so much.

Love Vanessa

I miss you Nana but I'm glad you aren't suffering. You are on my mind a lot and always in my heart. I hope you would be proud of who I am today. I miss watching shows together, having lots of food, going out shopping, our chats and most of all your warm hugs. Thank you for being the best nana. Love you so much!
