Charity efforts provide hope as family adapts to mum’s death
Elliot Choueka is in his kitchen. The table is a jumble of paperwork, a laptop and his phone, which flashes and beeps every few minutes. Behind the father-of-two is a noticeboard full of his children’s achievements and reminders written in chalk to pack their PE clothes. He used to share the responsibility for remembering these things with his wife but today, as he prepares Friday night dinner, he is on his own.
Mr Choueka lost his wife, Rosie, whose blog about battling breast cancer captured national attention, in June last year. Tomorrow would have been her 40th birthday.
