From people who came through it

  • 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€

  • 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€

    Seamstress G 58 ยท been through facing a terminal illness
  • 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€

    Hairdresser in Bristol ยท been through facing a terminal illness
  • 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€
