It is sad that Nigel has passed on. He was an inspiration for others to follow. Yes, he had cancer and went through the treatment, but didn't look back. Lived life to the fullest and went back to enjoying the things he loved.
His passing is a reminder to me to live each day to the fullest and enjoy each day like it could be my last. This is what I attempt to do, but sometimes stray. Some people I know have tears in their eyes when they see me the first time since my treatments. Tears of happiness that I am still doing the things I enjoy. Many tell me that I have made them stronger since they have followed me on my journey and have seen that within reason I have not allowed the difficult times to control my life. This is how we all can make the best of our situation as we continue on this journey of life. |

Hi Charly,
I am really sorry to hear about Nigel. Ken Two Year Survivor |

From what I feel - friends such as Nigel, who was a special friend - never pass away. They are always alive withen those who care for them. Nigel, for all reasons, is still very much alive. He may not be around physically but he is very much there, here and every where.Each one have their beliefs and this is mine. I in no manner will give my condolnces to a friend who is alive.
It may sound daft - however, I have been to be daft. Live on your beliefs and strength- and you will become immortal. |

Hey, happy days, we had real good fun at the 'fayre' privilege to meet Nige and Charly, still have the sheep key ring Charly gave me then, everyday, it reminds me of them both, Charly, it must be the hair. Good memories eh.

Thinking of you Charly. I still think of Nige often - the picture of him on that dive boat in a location I know well is firmly embedded in my visual memory. His and your family's story has had a huge impact on me.
Warm wishes to you all. Cathy |

Thanks Charly for reminding us of Nigel's departure from this planet. I took the opportunity to read back and see my post of 23 March. I also took note of Ananth's post of 19 April.
Helps to remind me to renew my attempts to live each day to the fullest and enjoy each day like it could be my last. Nigel and Ananth were instrumental in reinforcing these thoughts and lately I have done some back sliding. Will do my best to get back on track. |

Thanks for all your lovely replies and the link Dr J ..
Thats one thing our Nige did was live life to the fullest he never moaned and always had that smile on his face .He carried on going to parties (even sneaked out of hosp to attend a BBQ and a few cans with us) and managed to get back to his beloved Thailand and was still on that boat diving 2 weeks before he passed . He wouldn't stop bloody smoking tho i feel that was his downfall |
