“We were determined to do everything we could so they could be together at the end.
“We know it made a real difference to Mrs Bilton that she could be with him and she was able to sit in a wheelchair at the side of his bed holding his hand before he died.
“We were all crying when Mr Bilton died but glad we could help them be together.
“Everyone on the ward worked as a team to make it happen.”
