On 11th April, he received another card with a message from his wife. Inside the letter it was written,

“To, my dearest Humpty Dumpty,
Into your 40s now, gorgeous.
Has all the hair gone now?!?
‘I love you and always will. So much.’ “.

It is also reported that Dr. Granger found that she was suffering from cancer in 2011. She was diagnosed with Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumour (DSRCT).
