How's your neighbour

Many Channel 10 viewers would have been shocked tonight as it was announced that Carrie Bickmore's husband had died after suffering with cancer.

Carrie has read the news on the 7pm project this year, and following her stint on Rove Live has always appeared to the viewer to be a strong, jovial type. But behind the scenes we now discover that the facade hid a personal struggle with a young child to raise and a sick husband. Our thoughts and prayers are with her and her family at this time.

In the meantime it's a reminder to all of us that our neighbour may be putting up a brave face, but might be struggling all the same. Before we assume all is well, let's extend the hand and ear of friendship.
