As a former resident of Milton/North Halton I want to offer my support for building a hospice to serve the community that was our home for twenty-five years.
Ten years ago, we left Halton, and my husband Richard died at Matthews House Hospice in Alliston in January of 2016. There are not enough words to describe the wonderful care and support that he and our family received.
I have just attended the opening of the new 10-room Matthews House Hospice where they will offer integrated caregiving, bereavement, and activities for both patients and caregivers. We supported the fundraising because every community needs a refuge for palliative care.
I would encourage each and every person in Milton and Halton Hills to pledge money and time towards the building of the hospice. This is the community’s chance to make end-of-life the most positive and caring time possible.
