His last words to his wife Emma were: “I have never felt so bad, I wish I had the vaccine.”

Glynn was only two months away from his 55th birthday – he was planning to retire and spend his free time traveling and caring for animals.

Emma, ​​50, who suffered a double shot, says she now faces “an empty future on her own” and called on everyone to get vaccinated.

She said: “I am pushing everyone I know to get vaccinated.

“The last thing Glynn said to me was ‘I’ve never felt so bad, I wish I had the vaccine.’ It was heartbreaking.

“He begged for the vaccine when he was in intensive care before going to intensive care, but they said it was too late.

“I cry myself in dehydration every night, and let the tears flow like a river in the morning and wake up at night crying.

“It’s having to tell the people who loved him that they’ll never see him again, and seeing that pain in them. I’m used to trying to make people laugh, not cry.

“He was a very sweet soul, he was a vegan and didn’t want the Covid vaccine because it was tested on animals.”

Glynn, a field service engineer, looked after a total of six rescued cats and dogs from his home in Malvern.

He even brought a dog in need of a vacation to Sri Lanka.

He became hesitant to receive the vaccine after reading that producers such as Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson were testing their products on animals.

Initially, Glyn started with a cold that gradually got worse – he tested positive for Covid on October 27.

Due to her age and lack of a vaccine, her condition quickly deteriorated and Emma had to call an ambulance on November 2.

But she was told none were available and was forced to take her unconscious 19 stone husband to hospital herself.

According to Emma, ​​12 ambulances were lining up outside the Royal Worcestershire Hospital when she arrived.

She added, “I still don’t know how I got him into my car. He was so heavy I couldn’t even push him in a wheelchair in the hospital.

“Eventually a young boy appeared and offered to help him, he was there because his mother was also sick and couldn’t get an ambulance either, so he had to take him to the hospital like I did. did it. “

Glynn was quickly admitted to intensive care, but on the 10th he was placed on life support and in an induced coma.

Emma said: “I was with him when he died. I was wearing a full PPE kit so I couldn’t touch him, but they played his favorite Sex Pistols music and I stayed with him until the end. “

Within 20 minutes of stopping his breathing assistance, Glynn passed away.

Emma says that even after two weeks of his passing, she can’t imagine a life without him.

“I will miss our friendship, partnership, love and bond with each other forever,” she said.

“I sometimes think I need to text the word TALK to the suicide hotline when my thoughts get really loud and scary and take over.”

Glynn’s niece, Charlotte Steel, started a GoFundMe page in order to raise funds for the funeral:
