Cirrhosis death and palliative care

Sadly, my husband died from Cirrhosis on Monday. I am grateful to the community nursing team, palliative care services, Marie Curie nurses and my own GP. Their kindness, care and support made such a difference to both of us.

I’ve also appreciated the help and information I found on this site. Also thanks to the British Liver Trust for clear, easily understood guides to various aspects of liver disease and its treatment. I used the helpline and urge anyone who needs it to call. Much better than suffering in silence or terrifying yourself with Dr. Google.

My kindest best wishes to you all whether you have this illness or care for someone who does.
