TERRIBLE NEWS FROM YORKIEGIRL

Yorkiegirl has phoned me from holiday in Portugal; her husband Nigel has collapsed and died tonight.
She thinks it was a stroke or heart attack.
The authorities are trying to get hold of her parents - they are also in Portugal
Fortunately, neither of her DDs saw anything
I don't know much more than that but will post if I have anything else

best wishes for a safe return home yorkie girl XXX
this happened to my dad not long ago and it is the shock that really is hard to handle, you feel fine for a while and then it all falls apart.
any news when they will be home?
