Dave.

Your post has really set me back today..
I'm so sorry to hear of this recent tragic event..
You obviously have a very strong character to be able to think in terms of returning her quickly to the Philippines or even to be able to post here..
You have my deepest respect and my thoughts are with you.

Obviously you have spoken to her family.
Would they accept her ashes if it were not possible to fly her home in her present state?
Did you ever discuss this with your wife?
Filipina`s are often practical minded and 10,000 quid !!...
Well
did she ever express her wishes?
Something similar did happen to people close to me a few years back and the brit embassy in manila acted shamelessly and refused any type of visa for the funeral.
I hope things go smoothly for you in whatever you and her family decide..

Regards
Fred

condolence to you dave and her family,what can i say is 10,000k is a cost of furtune to send the dead body in the philippines be practical if its hard to get the visas to her family why you don't cremate her and send the ashes to her family,try to explain to her family you can't grant what they wished to you bcoz its expensive to send the body in philippines the important is to have her a RIP

Just wanted to say a huge thankyou to all of you for your messages of condolence i have spoken to the home office here ( apparently london does not have a British Embassy) they have assured me that if i fax jasmines family a copy of the death certificate they will be able to take it to the British Embassy in Manila and will be able to obtain the visas and that if there seemed to be a problem just to get in touch for their assistance. the local philippine community have been so good and helped so much
it is still unclear if it was actually a blood clot on the lung although the symptoms were classic of this. the coroner has yet to confirm

Dave,

I have just arrived home from Christmas with my parents and read your devastating news.
I hope that you will take heart that Jasmine is now in very safe and loving hands. As for you and your family, I send you my deepest condolences, and be assured that I shall pray for you all at this very tragic time.
By the tone of your messages in this thread you appear to be managing to remain 'sane' throughout this awful time and I shall also pray that God gives you the strength to 'pull through' which is surely what Jasmine wants you to do.

Dave, you are not alone on this site, as I am sure you know by now - and if you need anything - help - consolation etc.... I or (I am sure) anyone here at filipinouk will be more than willing to help you in any way we can.

God bless mate - I am so, so sorry.

Al.

Just few days ago, me and my husband discussed a topic like this of how I want to be shipped back in the Phils in case of death. Practically I answered, "maybe cremated as its much more cheaper..."

and just read these post...I might confirm it to him and talk to my family in the Phils about it sometime...subtly and in person.

Our heartfelt condolences to you Dave.

OK..Good idea but how long should you be married and living in the UK before making the decision of being buried or cremated in the UK which will be nearer to your husband and kids?
