Dear Cousin Alex,
I am afraid this might be the last time you will hear from me in a while. I went to the doctor a few days ago for some follow up testing and it confirmed my worst fears. It appears I am also dealing with cancer in my liver, similar to my recently passed father. I am not sure how much longer I have but I am going back into the city to be closer to the hospital. My mother wont come out of her room she is so upset. I am trying to be strong for her but even I am afraid.
It appears there is some hope for my family. If I die, a lawyer told me he would open a case on behalf of my family. Apparently given that I will have died due to work related causes, he believes he could set my mother and the rest of my family up for life. As scared as I am about leaving this world, I have some relief knowing I will leave my family with a path to survival. I have already made sure she knows to get as far away from London as possible. Go somewhere to the country side and just live. We as a family have experienced to much death and suffering in London's surrounding countryside. I hope that me and my father's sacrifices will not be in vain.
Sincerely, Cousin Conor
