As a carer, it has been validating as well as challenging, and a great support and safety valve at a difficult time in my life.

I found talking with James

I found talking with James covering my still feelings of grief after the death of my first husband most rewarding. We also discussed my own mortality and the feelings surrounding it as I enter my 76th year, usually a taboo subject but now I feel much more comfortable facing my own death… a journey we all must make.
