Everyone of us is affected differently by the death of someone close. For many, speaking with others in a similar situation can often help. It can bring comfort, offer support and help combat feelings of loss and loneliness.
Do you support someone living with a life limiting illness or a palliative diagnoses?
We know that caregivers can often feel cut off from the outside world and undertaking a caring role is hard work and can be extremely isolating.
Taking care of a loved one and being responsible for their health and wellbeing can be stressful both physically, emotionally and financially difficult but spending time with others in a similar situation can often help.
Have you or someone you know been diagnosed with MND?
We can offer advice and support to you and your family in a relaxed and informal setting at the Marie Curie Wellbeing Centre.
