Despite the difficulties, they have found strength in their love for each other. Johnnie has faith in an afterlife and finds comfort in the idea of being reunited with loved ones, including their beloved dog D'arcey. Tiggy, who also believes in life after death, has been caring for Johnnie around the clock as his health deteriorates. Their marriage has been tested by illness before, with Tiggy previously battling breast cancer and Johnnie caring for her. The couple has been together for 21 years, with Tiggy now serving as Johnnie's carer as he broadcasts his radio shows from their home.
