‘I’ve got motor neurone disease, and I’m dying…’
As Andrew shared these words with his family, he cried – it was the first time his children had ever seen him in tears.
He was a devoted family man who loved holidaying with his wife and children, a true Aussie larrikin with a heart of gold.
The family was connected with the NCCG for specialist support, receiving guidance from the time of diagnosis, including grief counselling for both children and Susan.
Providing care for families from the moment of a terminal diagnosis is essential. Their loved one is still with them, but they know the condition is terminal – there is no hope of recovery. NCCG counselling helps families make the most of the time they have left, live in the moment, and begin to understand and process what lies ahead.
“If by sharing the story of Andrew’s death we can help raise awareness and funding for the NCCG, it feels that at least something good may come from our heartbreaking loss.”
Susan, Andrew’s wife.
As Christmas approaches, your support is critical to help the NCCG be there for grieving families when they need it most.
