β€œElvis and I will miss him in everything and every day of our lives.

β€œTo Nicks superb and amazing doctor, Dr. David Ng, you were my positive doctor!

β€œThere are not many doctors like you. You are Kind, smart, compassionate, assertive, and always ready to listen to my crazy ideas or call yet another doctor for me for a second opinion.

β€œYou are a diamond in the rough.

β€œI cannot begin to thank everyone enough for the outpour of love, support, and help we’ve received these last 95 days.

β€œYou all have no idea how much you lifted my spirits at 3 pm every day as the world sang Nicks song, Live Your Life.

β€œWe sang it to him today, holding his hands and as I sang the last line to him, β€œthey’ll give you hell but don’t you light them kill your light not without a fight.

β€œ I smiled because I know he did put up a fight.

β€œI will forever love you, my sweet man.”
