Do you know the Forest Holme? Have you been lucky enough not to of heard of them?

 

 I hadn’t until my dearest Dad – Alan was diagnosed with Cancer in 2007, the Cancer had spread to several places which meant it was terminal, he fought but the illness stole him from us in just 11 weeks at just 63 years young.

 

 It was so terribly hard especially for Mum – Beverley. After 43 years of marriage how do you pick up the pieces, but she did & I am so proud of her for taking small steps one at a time to re-build her life, surrounding herself with lovely people from the Forest Holme, they helped to rebuild her life, providing such a vital life line.

 

June 2012 we celebrated Mum’s 65 Birthday! The celebrations were short lived as she was diagnosed with Cancer of the esophagus which had spread to other places, how could life deal us yet another cruel card & so soon. Mum bravely fought the illness but again this monster of a disease took her away after just 4 weeks.

 

Beverley was ‘As Brave as a Lion’ & I take my inspiration from my beautiful, kind, caring, precious Mum.

 

I hold the Forest Holme so very dear to my heart not just for taking care of the two most precious people in my life when they needed to  feel cared for & safe,  but because of the consistent, unconditional care they quietly provide to those who need it.

 

Lots of love x
