Sarah Wheeler, from Market Harborough, shares the story of her husband Brian, 54, who was cared for on the LOROS inpatient ward.
Richard Holding came into LOROS in late November. Thankfully we’d just gained funding to temporarily open four beds on our Willow ward, so were able to welcome Richard and his wife Linda on to our inpatient ward.
"When he finally went to LOROS, he only had three days left — but those three days meant everything. Dad’s room at LOROS felt like a little Airbnb, not a hospital. It was peaceful and opened onto the gardens. We could stay close to him the whole time. It felt calm — almost normal — which was such a comfort."
"Walking into LOROS with Gary felt like entering a sanctuary. We were warmly welcomed by smiling staff and were led to lovely room overlooking the garden. We felt safe."
Our hospice was the setting for a beautiful wedding earlier this week - Mark and Joyce finally tied the knot after 17 years together.
LOROS Hospice has today announced that it has secured funding to open four additional beds on its inpatient ward.
