This is a heart-wrenching and somewhat disturbing read. I'm crying now.
Earlier today, I also heard that Patrick Roy a socialist deputy who had pancreas cancer died too. He was a colourful character, always wears a red jacket, and a fan of Metal rock. He was back to the National Assembly in March, as a survivor, being in an unexpected remission, and made a very moving speech then, so there was hope...
I had expected it a bit. It had been quieter than ever for the last couple of days. Still it's very confronting to read the news on his blog, which ceased to be a blog...
I checked his twitter yesterday to see whether he'd posted anything on there, because I was worried. Still, today's post came as a shock, but it's so very true to him and I find that comforting.
