Summary

Today we met Sue, her brother Brian has tragically received a terminal diagnosis.

Yesterday they advised him to move his wedding up because he won't make it to August.

So this weekend they're organising a wedding for him and his partner of 30 years.

We were flooded with messages and calls of support as well as incredibly generous offers to help Brian out.
