My Story
10th December 2016, just a normal
Friday evening in a local working men's club in brafield…. Or so we thought….
My dad, my hero, my best friend was brutally taken away from us with 1 punch…. Trying to be the peace maker he was he told 2 brothers to not fight with each other and carried on walking home, Just from 1 punch he suffered a fractured skull then fell into a main road where it caused a bleed on the brain….. scans, tests, tubes and operations later he would never recover to the man I once knew before because he suffered a significant traumatic brain injury and he was in a vegetative state, 18 long hard months he fought but sadly the fight won the battle and my dad passed away in 2018 not only did we get dragged to court for a gbh case where the defendant got 2years 8months in prison but served 1year and 4 months he was soon set free until we faced him again for a manslaughter charge when dad passed away where he faced a 1 year 4 month prison sentence for taking a life!! My life is very different now as all i have is memories and photos of him.
