From people who came through it

  • โ€œIf you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it is easy. The first few months were the worst of my life. But I am writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. My nurse specialist has been more useful than the consultant, if you have one ask for their number. Go slowly.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€œHi, you. I was in the same place this time last year. I remember the hospice day centre like it was yesterday. Last month I had people round for dinner. From someone who gets it.โ€

  • โ€œI'm only a few months into this, but here's what I've learned so far. The paperwork can wait an hour. The fear doesn't go away, but it gets quieter if you let people help. Write things down, even if it's just a sentence. And find one small thing that makes you smile, like a game of cards or a bird at the feeder. It won't fix anything, but it makes the day easier to carry.โ€
