Heavy shit, man, I'm sorry to hear all of that. I watched some of the video and it sounds traumatic.

Thanks for the thoughts folks, it's been a pretty horrible time and we haven't even had the funeral yet. (That's on the 24th.) Making the video was actually quite a useful and cathartic process, even if the story isn't finished yet.

The death was unexpected, and my dad didn't have a will, so that's added a whole new wall of bureaucracy to everything. Plus the police smashed his kitchen wall to bits when they were forcing entry on a welfare visit (concerned neighbour) after screwing up the hospital check and not actually checking the hospital my dad was in. That's left us with £7500 of damage to his property to get sorted. (When you go through a high security door with a triple-point locking mechanism that in the building trade is known as a 'wall buster', turns out there's a good chance you'll take the wall out.)

I have been making sure I tell Mrs Hearthly that I love her every single day, because I have been made acutely aware that tomorrow is not guaranteed.

At least I got back to the UK to see my dad whilst he was still conscious and able to speak to us, twelve hours later he was in a medically induced coma that he never came out of.

I hope making the video was good therapy for you man. You have a very lively and engaging style when you're off the cuff. You should do a podcast.
