charon 4,943 Posted September 2, 2017 Mark Thornberry, diagnosed with terminal liver cancer, aims to run the Grand Union Canal route over the next 3 days for charadee. 140+ miles so fair effort. A good 10/15 minute interview on BBC radio so decent chance of obit in time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone who decided against him this year because of obit worries or was hoping that he could make the starting line next year may want to get their stress balls now, cause he got a Newsbeat article.

Death Impends 7,992 Posted September 8, 2017 Thought of posting her getting the Order of Australia last night with a "could this push her over the edge to get Guardian death coverage on top of the umpteen inevitable Mail articles?" comment but couldn't be bothered. Instead it gets her all the way to the BBC! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,229 Posted September 8, 2017 Connie Johnson getting a BBC obit is indeed a surprise. But getting that honor like Kate Granger probably made her a shoo in for a bbc obit I guess. Surprised she lasted as long as she did. RIP. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,979 Posted September 8, 2017 I'd been thinking she had days left since March. Symptomatic for my too-slow main team. But her and Bracknell might make The Love Boat player of the month. Connie Johnson fought cancer half her life. So maybe it shouldn't have been a surprise she lasted that long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Death" would be equally apt. As I understand it, this woman had the opportunity of treatment that might have given her another 15 years.
