My biggest fear was that Felicity would die in pain – however, the team at St Giles made sure that didn’t happen. Without St Giles we would have been completely lost.”
My name is Sean and my wife, Felicity, died at St Giles Hospice last November. Not only did I lose my wife, our two children, Isla and Lachlan, lost their mummy.
“Felicity was the most amazing person – bubbly, charismatic and the most incredible wife and mother. When we received her terminal cancer diagnosis in September 2023, we were devastated but the team at St Giles were there for us when we needed them the most.
“The care and compassion St Giles showed us made all the difference. The dedicated team didn’t just care for Felicity – they supported all of us. They helped manage Fliss’ symptoms, provided the highest level of care, and supported me and our children to navigate life after she died.
“They were always there, offering the most compassionate, personal care I could ever imagine. Their love and dedication will forever be in our hearts.
“As we approach our second Christmas without Felicity, I can’t help but think about how different our journey would have been without St Giles.
“Thanks to St Giles, our family was able to spend precious final days together with dignity and peace. The kids loved to snuggle up to Fliss and I’ll always remember a special movie night the team arranged for us – a bit of normality at the worst time of our lives.”
