Big Ang's husband Neil Murphy is at Mob...
Neil Murphy, the husband of the late Mob Wives star, says that the two were together during her final moments.
Murphy was at the end.I never left her side.Even though she didn't want me, I went.I spent the last two days at the hospital with her.We weren't 'estranged' to me.
He said he didn't want to argue with a sick person.I was on the phone with her all the time.I talked to her after the treatment.She was in the hospital for a day when she had a few procedures done.I wouldn't call it estranged.She was going through a rough time and she took it out on me.I was not going to fight with her.I didn't leave her.I was there.
I want to thank everyone who knows the truth about me and my wife.
Murphy says their marriage had its ups and downs, but that Raiola started to push away from him once she got cancer.
He admits that she didn't want him around when she got sick.The doctor told her that stress makes cancer worse.
He says that when he was at the hospital, she always said, "My husband is here, my husband's here."I don't know if that's the way people wanted to brand it, but I was there.
He shared that he was lying in bed with her the day before.I rubbed her back for an hour trying to calm her down.That was the last time we were together.
She decided to hum a song and dance when I took her to the bathroom.I had to hold her up.Murphy was in the hospital with his wife.The nurse said she was doing it in the elevator on the way to the tests.She was dancing after a song came on.
We had a lot of good times together.It was a crazy life at the end.She became a celebrity after we were regular people.It was a good life being married to her.I wouldn't change anything.
Raiola died on February 18 after a long battle with cancer.She was 55 years old.Her daughter is doing charity work with Big Ang's Angels, an organization that provides aid and financial relief to those in need, as well as working with St Judes Hospital.
Raiola's last public interview was conducted by Dr. Oz.According to reports, Murphy was by Raiola's side during her final moments.
