Julie and Garry’s Story

Julie and Garry shared a love of travel, family and life together before Julie was diagnosed with metastatic cancer in 2020. With the support of Farleigh Hospice, Julie was able to spend her final months at home and die with dignity, as she wished. After her death, bereavement counselling and volunteering with Farleigh helped Garry navigate his grief, rebuild his confidence and find hope for the future.
