At around 8.40pm on Monday, December 29th, the love of my life passed away. While relaxing on the couch at our home he went into sudden cardiac arrest, and was unable to be revived by paramedics or hospital emergency staff. He was pronounced dead about an hour later at the Canberra Hospital.

Because of the sudden and unexpected nature of his death a coronial inquest is required. When his body is released he will be taken home to Tasmania. The funeral will be held in Devonport next week.

My mother flew up from Tasmania early yesterday morning to be by my side. When things have been taken care of here we'll be going down to Tasmania, and will probably stay there for some time.

I don't know when I'll be back online, and I don't think I'll be able to come back to LJ. I can't face the thought of LJ comments at this time, but emails are welcome. katrinajsaunders (at) hotmail.com.
