RIP Pelé

At age 82 after a long battle with cancer.
Brazilian football legend Pele, arguably the greatest player ever, has died at the age of 82.

Rip my Mum, Pam..

Image

She passed on Thursday night.

It's so weird waking up and knowing she's not here any more, as an only child an her sole carer for years now too there's just thing big kinda void right now, though honestly, I know it's a massive cliche but she’s in a better place. She’s been so poorly for such a long time now and at least now she’s not suffering any more.

I just held her hand and told her that my dad was waiting to take her home and that she’d see her mum again soon. I told her I loved her and I’d see her later, then she just slipped away.

I couldn’t ask for more than that. I’m just glad I was with her at the end.
