Well my wife died suddenly and unexpectedly from a stroke a few months before our 25th. Not something I cope with well even now two years on
What did you get for your 30th Wedding Anniversary?

David,
I am really sorry to hear that; my girlfriend's late husband died from a stroke, to her credit she converted the dining room with a hoist etc and looked after him for two years.
I hope it's not the wrong thing to say, but by the descritions something quicker might have been kinder.
I know that's little consolation to you, and I hope you find some sort of happiness again.
Strokes are at least as horrible as heart attacks and do not get the publicity they require, hence I suppose the FIRE ad's on TV now but they only go so far.
Why a First Aid course including strokes is not mandatory for all school pupils and say people learning to drive is a mystery to me, our sailing club runs such courses - run by experienced doctors & nurses - now and again.
I hope you begin to find happiness again, I'm sure your wife would have wanted that.

Hmmm, Boy Service clearly doesn't count-excluding the 2 years Apprenticeship, only our 44th this December 5th.
It is hard to celebrate the ones in between the 0's in winter-last year,we had a longer lie in, got texts from the two boys, then we went to our favourite local town's Chinese for the Lunch Special offer, then a stroll round the shops and home again for a quiet evening in together in front of the fire and telly.
Both actually enjoyed it, as very relaxed, and just 'Us' time together-no evening meetings, e-mails, phone calls, etc, etc.
Unlike our 40th-Half the 100+ guests to our 40th were snowed/iced in at home or at the Club-the Band made it OK though
