Suzie Fletcher from The Repair Shop shared a poignant moment when she realised her husband Rob had surrendered to his battle with cancer.Rob, gravely ill and having lost a significant amount of weight, was on a motorcycling trip with Suzie when he struggled to get his motorcycle onto a bike rack.
Before Suzie could assist him, some fellow bikers stepped in to help.Despite trying to conceal his frailty with multiple t-shirts, Rob accepted the strangers' help and admitted, "Look, man, I got cancer."In her heartfelt memoir, 'The Sun Over The Mountains', Suzie reflected, "I saw the humiliation in his face," but also noted an acceptance.
She said: "From that moment, I started to see a different look on his face. I've seen the same thing in other people who are terminally ill.
You see it in their eyes and you can trace it along their brow. It registered with me that this was a new beginning for Rob.
