Sad News

My beloved Tove has left me. She died after a prolonged illness. In the end what took her was not the cancer, but rather the lingering effects of a severe pneumonia she suffered a month ago. Back home from the hospital after the pneumonia she had a hard time getting oxygenated. The slightest movement or effort needed to be planned in detail. But she continued to work every day with the games she loved. One of the last things she did was to take part over Zoom in the GothCon gaming convention last weekend. She was overjoyed to be able to attend the convention and talk to people on site. Thanks to our good friends, lead by Åsa Roos, we could also have a small shop on site. The convention goers could play our Western adventure A Coffin Full of Dollars, something that made Tove extremely happy. It was her 25th GothCon.

On Sunday morning we could not participate in GothCon's last day. In the morning Tove suffered from acute shortness of breath after her oxygen tube had come loose. I reconnected the tube and called for an ambulance. She was unconscious for almost three hours from the time I found her in bed until she woke up in the emergency room. She was transferred to the intensive care unit where she recovered. We talked for a while in the evening, and she was the same happy and wonderful Tove she has always been. She had not suffered any brain damage from the lack of oxygen. On Monday she got worse, and I stayed with her until nine o’clock in the evening. Her oxygen levels ​​were stable but a little low.

By midnight the hospital called and told me that Tove’s oxygen levels deteriorated rapidly. I threw myself into a taxi and rushed to the hospital. When I arrived Tove’s oxygen levels had dropped significantly. I sat with her until she passed away at 02.15, and a while longer to say goodbye. She was the light of my life. We had 32 wonderful years together, and many happy memories remain. She was my partner in both life and work. I wish we were given more time. She had so much more to give. It is too early to pass away at 55. She was in the middle of her life, had lots of ideas she wanted to realize and game material she wanted to write and publish.

Right now there will be a lot of changes to my life. But I know that I am going to continue working with games and see to it that this Kickstarter is fulfilled. That is what Tove would have wanted. I am just sad that she is not here to see it.


Yours,
