‘This is the start of a silent revolution... we have to get better at helping people to die well, starting with our own families. It’s about taking love and responsibility for those we love back into our own hands.’ Hospice doctor
‘We turned my father’s death into a beautiful, loving and completely gentle experience. Thank you for lighting the way and showing us how to achieve this.’ Reader
‘We actually hi-jacked Gran from the care home and brought her back to us. We only had a week with her but it was wonderful. There was this feeling of love that drew the family together. It’s remained and we are now closer than ever.’ Reader
‘I keep it in my van and deliver it, with the letters, to any houses on my round where I know someone is dying. I hope it’s one small way of helping people to share special emotions with the people they love.’ Postman, Yorkshire
