My Cancer Journey 9, Journeys End

foreigner, how are you all, hey, um, I'm just making this short video, uh, it's number nine, uh, Journey's End, um, so you can guess it's coming from there, um, so I just wanted to make this short video um, just so you know that, uh, uh. maybe today, yesterday, day before he actually uh passed away, so I'm not here anymore, okay, um, I wanted to keep it pretty quiet, um, you know, just because we didn't know exactly how he would come when he would come, um, the other stuff. It approached us pretty quickly, so I went from two weeks ago being able to go to the supermarket, walking around the shops with Kylie with my Wiggly Walker and um uh change to being pretty sick in the hospital and then, um, a good second?

A bit like here now, this is where I passed away and I was bedridden, it basically happened very quickly, so I got pneumonia in the lungs or in the lungs, my breathing gets worse and parts of me put in vital organs, starting to fail, but other than that. Believe it or not, it sounds pretty scary, but it actually wasn't that scary at all. So, that's what happened. So what's going to happen now? Of course, I'm not having a funeral. Basically, I've gone for a basic beer bone cremation, so it's possible he'll already be cremated by the time this video goes public.

Although we will pick up my own baby, here is mine. It's actually pretty light, so maybe it's not there yet. Okay, now what's going to happen is, so this video just to tell the people who have passed away, in a few days, as soon as I'm cremated, my Facebook page will be created, it will be commemorated, so it will be done. by Kylie or my son Teagan and they will memorialize my Facebook page for me so you know you'll have a chance if you want and just say goodbye in the comments section on this video or on my Facebook memorial page okay yeah like that keep an eye on that, another thing that's going to happen, I hope I have to talk, oh, I've spoken to the Canoe Club, hopefully, and they can take some of my ashes and spread them across the ocean here in Perth and, you know, Ocean Reef. or downfinder um but I hope they do that for me um so we've talked about it uh in the past anyway some of the committee members um and then of course some of my ashes will come back to New Zealand and uh talking to the Monday, um, we think we have permission, you know, that's TBC, to put some of my ashes just a little bit, with mom and dad there at the cemetery and invercargill, so let's see what's going to happen beyond today um.

I'm not going to go into too much here in terms of thanking a lot of people, but I just want everyone to know, thank you for being with me on my

journey

, thank you, you know, for all those who have been a part of my life, well. or bad, you know you can take the good, take the bad, take the ugly, it's life, you know, so, thank you for being a part of my life, securing your life with me and I hope it wasn't too painful, yeah, yeah . So oops, I'll let you go from here and hopefully we'll see you with another short video on my Facebook memorial page.

It's okay, Guru. I think we have to tell you that I am very proud of mine. I wanted to build my own and started doing that, but I basically ran out of puff pastry, so I bought one. Here it is. I had my mother's. I put my mother's brooch here. This is a brooch we gave to mom. A few years ago when she passed away she gave it back so little sterling silver flowers mother of pearl flowers and then we have the bees around the outside so the bees are there because they are on the family crest of leaves to indicate that, uh, we.

There are traders in the past in Stratham Park in London and basically the leaves were taken to New Zealand and of course there are tons of leaves here right now and also in Australia. And the other reason why the bees are there is because they are Kylie's favorite little animal, the collie likes peas, then dragonflies and butterflies, yeah, so maybe we have something in common with bees, so there it is, so I'm very proud of that, put that there, um and uh, that's where I'll be. and maybe everyone put a little black my name in the middle, but that's near the end or there it's totally up to her how she treats it, okay, um, yeah, okay, see you later.
