To all the family and friends of Lee Arundel
Many of you will now be aware that Lee passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday 20 September 2022, following a very short illness. 💔
We (father and grandfather) have been awaiting the full and final findings of the Lincolnshire Coroner's office, as to the cause of Lee's death.
We are now in the position to inform you all, that Lee died from Diabetes Ketoacidiosis.
It is best that you take time to look this up.
Read, digest and understand how awful and quickly the condition worsens, rather than we try to explain. The only cure is hospitalisation and even then, it is a slow process to recovery.
To all of you that have commented, been in contact with us directly... Thank you ❤️
It has been lovely and somewhat comforting to see how much you thought and felt for Lee.. We're sure that this outpouring of love and affection, would have been met with some sarcastic comment, tainted with expletives and yet, embraced by a gruntled undertone of fondness for you..!!
Despite the shenanigans of the funeral directors (story for another day) Lee is at peace. Lovingly cared for.
As a family, we like to say this... "If you or anyone you know is a diabetic, please check on them. Make yourselves, your family and friends aware of the symptoms of the above..
Your knowledge, may just save someone's life and if that should happen, Lee's passing won't have been in vain" 🥺😢
We would just like to mention a couple of names... Kirsty Birch and David Holt
These lovely individuals have expressed a desire to organise, arrange a date or dates, to raise a glass or two in Lee's memory. Whilst an event is proposed, in order to raise funds on Lee's behalf for charity.
We have asked if the event would support 'Gt. Ormond St. Children's Hospital' for without their help and support to Lee, from 9 weeks to 18 years of age.. He would never have achieved what he did...
He is and always will be.. Our Grandson, Son, Brother, Friend and Colleague ❤️❤️###
