Everyone is different and handles the death of their parents differently. My Dad was 77 when he died but he had a horrible 2 years of Alzheimer’s. It would have been better for everyone, particularly him if he had been taken earlier . My mum is 88 and still going strong.

Best wishes to David A.

I can so relate to this.

My Father was a strong man who I watched succumb to Parkinson's over many years, it was a combination of this and an inoperable brain aneurysm that took him at the age of 77.

I wish he had died at the time, people won't get it but it's true. I had months of watching him in Hull Royal staring up at the ceiling, not knowing if he could hear what I was saying.

It's horrible watching loved ones in this state.

We all depart but there's hopefully better ways and more peaceful ways for most of us.

Quoted from neverapen
IN a fairly recent interview DA was talking about what an awful time the club has had in the past few months including the passing of Cam, Callum Ainley's diagnosis and the Maher / Glennon car crash. He spoke very supportively about how it affects people in different ways and how supportive the club is in giving staff (both playing on non playing) what they need. I hope David does whatever he needs, whether it be time off or not. I lost my Dad suddenly a couple of years ago and whilst it hit me hard, I needed some normality within it. Regardless, all of our support is with him.  



I must have missed it but what was the car crash?

Listening to SP interview, it sounds like DA father is seriously ill and not going to recover.
It’s still a difficult time for DA and his family and we should respect his privacy and offer our support.

Yes clearly a terminal illness and sounds like a sudden deterioration. DA still taking the game on Saturday which is amazing commitment, hope the crowd really get behind him and the team and that lads can get the win for him.

Incredible that he's still taking the game in these circumstances. Let's show him that we are all behind him at the game tomorrow. GTFC is a family. UTM
