The Cancer Thread

They’re incredible. A pal’s wife works there in the palliative care. Remarkable woman. I wouldn’t last a working week, would fall to bits.

He died about 2 weeks ago after. I just haven’t brought myself to write here about it. A great great man, who I’ll remember to the end of my own days.

Someone close to me just went with pancreatic. The care and love and respect they received in Castletroy was off the charts.

Sorry to hear this. You’ll be glad, in time, of that time you spent with him near the end. R.I.P.

They are amazing. They make it comfortable and its not like a hospital setting. A tough place for anyone but as you said all staff are amazing. I had a few boxes of chocolates in the car for them for weeks but couldnt bring myself in. Always donate to them

You can look yourself in the eye at least. That’s something. Be good to have a friend like you. He was lucky.
