A heartbroken Dean Wilson has written about the “toughest weekend of his life,” after losing his mum while he was racing in Australia at the weekend.
Wilson, who still somehow won both motos despite the pain he was going through, said: “The toughest weekend of my life. I Lost my mum the morning of Race day for Round 2 of @ausxsupercross Unfortunately she lost her battle with cancer. I’m hurt & I’m broken inside. I feel like she took a piece of me when she left us. I had to carry on with my day and race & that’s exactly what she would want me to do. Me & my mum were like glue, She was my rock.
“All I can say is I hope my son has the relationship with his mum like I had with mine. Hug your mum tell her you love her. It’s over quicker than you know. I ended up taking the win with a 1-1. My mums final words to me were “I will always be with you, I will now be your guardian angel”❤️🕊️ I also just want to thank my wife @sarahvanicek , My sister @katrinamtb & my Dad for being such tough soldiers through this. Thank you to my family, friends & loved ones. Like my mum always told me. “Love the life you live❤️”
