I have been to St Anne's a couple of times as a kid but it has been a long time since my last visit and I've not seen the new building. I was impressed with your writing and I kept reading on. I admire your courage in coping with your spinal cord injury and the demise of your mother. I have worked in a Palliative Care ward for a year and a half and have been close to some of my patients and their families. I can imagine how it must have grieved you to see your mother in pain and having to depend on so many drugs to keep the pain in control. Currently I am working with rehabilitation patients and have met a few spinal cord injury patients. I know you will be an encouragement to them. I just wanted you to know that you are an excellent writer and do keep up the good work. Continue to look to our Lord Jesus Christ and He will guide you always. Sharon Dear Peter,

That period was one of the most difficult times of my life. To me, those working in palliative care are one of the most noble people. They comfort and ease the sufffering of terminal patients on the final leg of their journey. Thank you for leaving a comment here. Sharon,
