Janet made me feel heard, she showed me how to express my thoughts and be comfortable saying anything without feeling judged. I needed that. I can laugh and I can cry as I know that at the hospice I am in a safe place. Without that I would be a shell of a person, I would still be in fight or flight mode.
You don’t expect to have the weight of the world on your shoulders at 26 years old.
I am so thankful that the hospice didn’t stop supporting people like me during the pandemic. Dove House adapted their care and made it work and I can’t even begin to think what would have happened to me if they hadn’t.
