From people who came through it

  • โ€œI was right where you are in 2023. I remember writing letters for my kids like it was yesterday. I picked up the guitar again. It doesn't stay this heavy. Sending love.โ€

  • โ€œWhen I first heard 'months, not years', I thought my world ended. It didn't. You'll have good days and bad days. The scanxiety is real, but it passes. Let people help you. The hospice team, your family, friends. Talk about your fears. I wish I'd done it sooner. You're not by yourself in this, even when it feels like it.โ€

  • โ€œHello from the other side of it. Not that long ago, about a year, that was me. The worst part was palliative care team at home. Yesterday I booked a holiday. Keep going, even slowly.โ€

  • โ€œIf you've just found this place, I was in the same place a year and a half ago. The worst part: told I have months, not years. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once.โ€
