RIP Thread March

My Nephew Age 48.
Fell over last monday early hours.

Went to bed, didnt wake up

Massive brain Bleed

Dont think it was caused by the fall.

Only with him sunday he was fine

Never been ill in his life

Dad of the juniors

Unbelievabe really...one minute Nephew brings me back to filey after Everton game

A very long-standing mate of mine, and an absolute gem of a man. If he hadn't been such a great rugby player, he would've been an equally outstanding footballer, golfer, cricketer, or just about any sport he turned his hand to.

RIP Lee.

Agree Polly, very sad, and what a lovely, lovely family. To be staring down the barrel of a bleak disease, knowing there is no happy ending, very courageous to have the get up and go for all the fundraising to help others. Inspirational. I guess we'd all like to think in similar circumstances we would all be able to do the same, but very few can.

RIP Lee.

**** Filey. Really genuinely sorry to hear that. Same thing happened with my Mum, bleed to the brain. It haunts me, it really does to this day as I was with her 10 minutes after it happened and foolishly I thought she would be OK as I was asking her questions which she was able to answer fairly coherently.

Devastating loss and you have my deepest sympathy and of course your nieces.

Sorry to hear your sad news, Scarb. Terrible for the Mum and her girls. Commiserations to all.
 
Sad news Filey, especially for the youngsters.

Carpe diem.

Devastating news. My aunties nephew Simon Smith died of the same illness a few years ago. He was well known in Rugby Union circles locally. Horrible disease.

RIP Lee
We had a talk about this awhile ago.
I really think some of these rugby lads, league and union, are going to be in a bad way, with the hits they are taking, in the years after they retire.

Yes, but this awful disease has nothing to do with taking hits. I had an aunty die of motor neurone disease and all I can say after seeing what she went through I wouldn't be as brave as this bloke was. Coward that I am I would end my life before it took hold.

Not getting into an argument about it on this thread but a bloke I know contracted mnd and his specialist told him all the hits given and taken played a large part.
