Messages of Gratitude:

Client Reflections and Thanks to Hospice Heroes

"I had nowhere to turn and felt utterly alone. Then I found Hospice, and their unwavering support gave me everything I needed to heal. I am forever grateful to those that made it possible.”

“Thank you to everyone at Hospice for being there for me during the darkest days of my life.”

“When we lose someone - someone we love very much - it is not an overstatement to say that it shatters your world. The whirlwind of emotions that surround the devastation, leaves you winded and without direction. Nanaimo Hospice gave my family that direction, and laid a pathway to healing when we thought healing was beyond our reach. The services we received at Hospice were truly our saving grace.”
