He wrote, “I don\u2019t know what life looks like without her. I don\u2019t need answers now. What I do know is I\u2019m not alone, I have an abundance of love and support that I truly didn\u2019t think was possible. They have not allowed me once to feel that I am doing this on my own. From Australia to LA etc they have shown up in a way I didn\u2019t think was possible and I have no idea how I get through it without them. You all know who you are and I love you more than words.”<\/p>\n

Demos also thanked the medical staff who cared for his mother over the years, singling out the Warrigal team who helped during her last week in palliative care. He said the kindness they showed his mother will stay with him forever.<\/p>\n
