She had been in a hospital in West Kirby for almost 12 months and was due to come home. My father who was aged 31, took the afternoon of work and was on his way home on his motorcycle when he was killed instantly in a road accident. My mother never did see him again and was soon back in hospital, myself and my two younger brothers had to go into care.
So whenever the early part of the year comes round and the Munich disaster is remembered it is a doubly sad time for me.  |
that sad to hear im glad your with us here, sorry to hear about the loss of your dad..............
