A TERMINALLY ill man is hoping to stay alive long enough to get back together with his wife, even though she plotted to murder him three times.
Hayley Weatherall and her lover Glenn Pollard are serving life for conspiring to kill Ray Weatherall, 59, diagnosed with brain cancer in 2015 and given 18 months to live.
Ray survived being shot in the face, a swimming pool heater explosion, and a scheme to kill him with a mix of sleeping pills and insulin.
But, despite all this, he still loves Hayley, 38, and forgives her. He is "hanging on" until she completes her minimum prison term in nine years.
Ray's best friend Pollard, 55, and Hayley hatched a plan to be together more quickly following Ray's diagnosis. Pollard's daughter, Heather, 26, was also involved.
Heather shot Ray in the face near his home in Sandwich, Kent. But the bullet hit his right cheekbone.
Ray is still scarred from the second-degree burns he suffered in a swimming pool heater explosion, which a court heard was part of the would-be killers' plot.
Hayley and Pollard also discussed poisoning him with sleeping pills and insulin, and pushing him overboard on a fishing trip. Heather did internet searches on "Techniques on silent
killing", "Creative ways to kill someone" and "16 steps to kill someone and not get caught".
The plot was foiled by detectives who investigated the shooting.
