I am very grateful for palliative care and their expertise. I was so glad when we managed to get you moved to that unit. Than your breathing symptoms and pain and nausea were addressed by a team that knew what to do and you were much more comfortable. My one regret is that I was so busy looking after your physical comfort that I didn’t talk to you about what you would want for me and the family – or to talk more about how you felt and saw things.

To others facing the loss of their spouse – talk about the things that really matter…
