Story
My amazing daughter, Hannah, was diagnosed with Juvenile Batten Disease at the age of 9, and over a period of 10 years she lost the ability to see, to walk, to eat and to talk. She suffered seizures, had hallucinations, cognitive problems and became totally dependant on her family. Her last two weeks with us was spent in the Warwick Myton Hospice where the care and support was more than we could of hoped for.
From the moment we walked into Myton, nothing was too much trouble. We stayed with her 24/7 and was given accessed to a family room so we could shower and get something to eat. There was always someone to give advice and the doctors explained everything that was happening. The nursing staff went above and beyond, and I'll will always be grateful to them.
Doing this skydive, and hopefully raising a lot of money for Myton, will go a small way to say thank you and allow others to have such amazing care and support at the most difficult of times.
So please give what you can - thank you.
At The Myton Hospices we believe that everyone matters for every single moment of their life; we focus on enhancing life when cure is no longer an option. We are leaders in compassionate end of life care; our work centres on our patients and involving them in decisions about their care. Perhaps most importantly we give them more quality time with their loved ones. Last year we supported more than 1,500 people and their families, in our three hospices, via our patient & family support services, and in the community through Myton at Home.
