We are asking for your help please.
On Sunday Steve’s beautiful wife of just 15 months suffered a severe haemorrhagic stroke. An ambulance was called and whilst in the ambulance just half an hour later, Lucy experienced another catastrophic bleed to her brain. Staff at the hospital tried desperately to support Lucy and allow her the opportunity to recover.
Devastatingly, the outcome was not as Steve hoped and on Tuesday 29th, he had to make the awful decision, guided by Lucy’s doctors, to turn off her life support & allow her to pass away with quietness and dignity.
Steve & Lucys' 3 kids Niomi, Tiffany & Sam and grandson Noah, are beyond heartbroken.
Lucy had suffered with kidney failure for many years, spending much of her time at the QA hospital awaiting a transplant that never came.
Lucy was just 42 years old.
We so want to send Lucy on her final journey in a way she should - in style. Anything left over will go towards supporting her kids.
Anything you could offer towards this, Steve & the kids would be so very grateful.
Many thanks Liz - (Steve’s Auntie!)
