In February 2016 I went for a routine eye test when it was discovered that I had a small bleed behind my left eye. I was referred to the doctor the same day and then endured two months of numerous tests, scans, x-rays, and monitoring.
Jackie and Mike's story

Glenda's story

Two years ago, I was told I had stage four lymphoma in my lungs and glands after being misdiagnosed with emphysema to start with. It was a massive shock and a horrible time, as my daughter in Australia was pregnant with twins and had also been recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Thankfully she made a full recovery and the twins are now doing well.
Ann's story

I started feeling unwell in August 2015 but it wasn’t until December that I was finally diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer. Following diagnosis, I had three months of chemotherapy which has resulted in severe side effects. Living in Hillington, I knew about the Hospice and thought they might be able to help me to cope with the symptoms.

Susan's story

The Hospice has been life-saving for me. It’s seven months since Bernard died and I still attend the monthly coffee mornings for the bereaved and the monthly stroll together around Sandringham woods. It’s so cathartic to talk to others that have been through this very dark place. We all support each other. We all know exactly what each other is talking about. We’ve all been there, the timings are different, the order of events are different, but the grief is the same.
