I've just read that Phil Spender's parents died in a car accident on Friday. Very sa and deepest sympathies to him.

Sounds really traumatic 😞

They sound like a lovely family and are very philosophical about it/trying to protect others from the drama, from what I've read.

Awful shock for the family but I thought the way he spoke about it was very gentle and pragmatic. His mum had Parkinson's and his dad dementia, so they were looking at a potentially long and unpleasant few years of decline, so this way they went together, quickly. A lot to be said for that. But losing both parents at once is very tough for those left behind Sad

He/his family are local to me

This was the outcome

Very sad

As his parents were in their 80s and suffering from Parkinson's and dementia I'm surprised that one of them was driving the car (their carer was sitting in the back).

While it's a sad story it does seem like a better end than a slow, painful decline and death.
