Our thoughts are with his loved ones
A wife has paid tribute to her 'incredible' husband who died while waiting for a heart transplant. Luke Barnes, who lived in Mapperley, was taken off his life support on Friday, March 17 after he suffered an irreversible brain injury as a result of his implanted heart pump failing.
Mrs Barnes, 22, who works as an ambulance service call handler, said: "There are so many words I could say, but none of them would ever do him justice. He was just truly the most incredible man in the whole world. Luke first discovered his heart disease after being examined following a rugby injury. He had a passion for sports, with family members telling him football scores and Nottingham Forest's anthem 'Mull of Kintyre' playing in the background as his care was withdrawn.
