Retired sailor, 97, drowned himself in harbour after being diagnosed with terminal cancer

A retired sailor drowned himself in a harbour after being diagnosed with terminal cancer, an inquest has heard. Reginald Edlington White, 97, had been battling prostate cancer for several years but was told by doctors it had spread to his spine and was terminal. Less than a week after being told the diagnosis, the former Merchant Navy seaman walked into a harbour Aberystwyth, Wales, where he was later found dead.
