A team from NHS Somerset provided personalised training to Ms Bow which allowed the couple to spend the final 13 months of his life together at home.The Somerset NHS Foundation Trust social care training team made visits to the couple's home as Mr White's condition progressed, to provide advice and guidance to Ms Bow."He had never been ill before- we were shocked- it was all so new to us," Ms Bow told BBC Radio Somerset.
"He wanted to go to watch Leeds United play, so I drove him to Leeds. I stopped three times to give him care on route, but we managed it."We loved visiting West Bay for fish and chips, and although he couldn't eat, he still wanted to do it, so we did it," added Ms Bow.The training in a variety of skills including like catheters and injections, aims to reduce hospital admissions and improve patient discharge times.
