      My precious Sylvia died this morning at 8:40am in the St Catherine’s Hospice in Crawley, Sussex, U.K.

      For several months she had been suffering from advanced lung cancer.
      She never smoked.

      She bore the distress of this illness with the grace and courage for which she is known.
      She sends her love and best wishes to all those that knew her and loved her.

      @Markku and I were utterly shocked to read this, Dave!

      You have always spoken of your wife with such love and admiration, I can only imagine the depth of your feelings for her, and the depth of loss you must be feeling now. It's heart breaking :cry:

      I wish there was more we could do for you. Please know that our thoughts are with you, and feel free to reach out any time you need a kind word.

      Big hug from the Tinnitus Talk team :huganimation:

      So, so sorry to hear this Dave. I know Sylvia meant the world to you, and I know you meant the world to her.

      I'm thinking of that photo you shared a couple of months back with you both in each others' arms, big happy smiles on your faces having done some gardening. What an amazing journey you both shared together.
