Just found out that one of my long time marshal colleagues has died. We were the same age, give or take a few months.
I really feel for their partner, they were each other's world.
Cancer really, REALLY fucking sucks.

@stannard they were one of the fittest, strongest, most driven people I ever knew. They came back from a serious spinal fracture while in the forces, having to learn to walk again.
But then a glioblastoma got them. Mercifully very, very quickly.
I'm out at Donington Park tomorrow, handling the radios in race control. It'll be a day of reflection.
@stannard Yeah. I'm also waiting for my CT results from Thursday so there's additional poignancy/terror there.
My local support group is really good, there are people there who've been living with PCa for 20+ years. I doubt I'll get that far, but who knows?
