A heartbroken daughter has paid tribute to her 'superman' dad as she prepares to run a marathon in his memory after he died of cancer four months after complaining of body aches.
As reported by Glasgow Live, he underwent chemotherapy and was due to go for an operation - however, he contracted sepsis and was later deemed unfit for surgery. Stephen died at his home on January 21, 2021, with his loved ones by his side. "His skin started to go that jaundiced way where he looked yellow. He was barely eating and fading away.
Recalling the devastating day her dad passed, Kirsty added: "He was lying in bed and could barely speak. He was coming in and out of sleep."It was an awful time for us, it was the shock of only having one parent now. It felt like something was missing when everything of my dad was still there.Some of Kirsty's happiest memories of her dad were when he used to take her and older brother Mark, 26, to play snooker when they were younger.
