Shane MacGowan's wife admits losing him 'isn't as bad' as she feared

Transcript

00:00 I spent many, many years, probably at least 35 years,

00:04 worrying about losing Shane because he was so--

00:08 oh, what's the word?

00:10 So I guess he just pushed the boundaries so much of what

00:16 humans can do to their bodies.

00:19 And so I dreaded that, and I thought

00:22 that I would fall apart.

00:23 I thought I would die.

00:25 I thought I would not be able to speak.

00:27 I thought I'd be just comatose or on drugs myself

00:31 or something like that.

00:34 So I just want you all to know that it's not as bad

00:37 as you think it's going to be.

00:40 And there's a huge amount of love

00:42 that comes your way when you lose someone

00:46 that you didn't really expect.

00:48 And in my case, I've been overwhelmed by how much love

00:51 and support there is.
