The Loss of Health

When facing the prospect of a terminal illness, a grief can set in for the loss yet to come.

Whether you're grieving for your own diagnosis, and the loss of a future you'd always imagined, or you're the primary carer or family member of someone diagnosed with a terminal illness, it's perfectly normal to feel grief and loss around losing control of your own health and future self. 

There are a range of illnesses, such Alzheimer's Disease, Dementia, Cancer, neurological diseases, and so many more, that can compromise a quality of life and make many feel deep sadness with realisation of changed opportunities, dreams, hopes and plans.
