Hetchins Vade Mecum H27329

I think sometimes people forget the partner, he dotes on her and refuses to put her into care. Wonderful old boy.
Agreed, it's who the sufferer "leaves" behind, that still has their mind intact that suffer. Edit, having been married a long time, I would like to think I would be capable of doing the same as John.
 
Hope he has some help from NHS or community, as being sole carer is a very difficult for a young person, let alone someone at his age. I lost my best friend last year to dementia, it was just terrible seeing him deteriorate to what he became at the end. As hard as it may seem, I was glad he passed away, it is no way to live.
 
On subject of Mario, he showed me some really nice framesets in addition to you CB, some finished and some still in their raw state. Ron Cooper, H Hill etc, but it was a fabulous Holdsworth sporting intricate lugs was one that caught my eye - fortunately too big for me, my shed is full as is.

Frame was quite pitted when the old paint was sand blasted off but doesn’t look too bad now, in Mario’s spray booth now getting final colour applied.
