Thanks Steve from Top End Tours

In early June I was walking into Jim Jim Falls at Kakadu National Park. My ankle went from underneath me and I sprained it really badly. Steve stopped and offered assistance along with others in his tour, I just wanted to say a very big thank you to all who helped me, and in particular Steve. We left for Adelaide the very next morning as we had a phone call from my father inlaw telling us he had been diagnosed with Metastatic Cancer, it took us 4 days to get down to Adelaide this meant we had to cut our holiday short although this was not a problem. On arriving in Adelaide my husband asked the Drs what was life expectancy he was told 2-3 Months without treatment or 6-12 with Chemo if it worked. This was bleep tering, asmy father in law was from Broken Hill NSW we made a promise that we would make sure he got back home, so after three months in Adelaide we drove him home to continue his chemo in the Hill. Unfortunatly Chemo didn't work and my father in law passed away on the 23 Oct at home.

I had just spent the last 5 months watching my father in law getting sicker and more frail by the day, and my dear husband dilligently nurse him at home, nothing was ever too much trouble, but the sadest thing was my husband was doing anything, and everything he could in the hope of changing the outcome, and sadly that wasn't to be.

So now we are back at home in Qld with our family, and this experience has changed us for the better in so many ways, things you thought were important are suddenly not, we understand now more than ever before it is important to do everything in life that you want to do and don't wait.

My father in law was a very young 73 yr old never had a sick day in his life and very active.
