Rebuilding self-confidence – Jim’s story

Jim was referred to Dorothy House Hospice Care by his GP to offer support with his cancer diagnosis. Initially enrolled on a four-week course, Jim came into the Hospice at Winsley one day a week. The course covered a variety of topics such as exercise, relaxation and meditation.

Jim explains how the course has been key to rebuilding his self-confidence. He tells us: “Dorothy House has given me more confidence in myself, both physically and mentally. They have helped me a great deal."

Jim reflects positively on his time at the Hospice and the support he has received, and he takes comfort in knowing that his final days in the care of Dorothy House will be ‘in pleasure’.

"One day, I might need to go into the Hospice, and seeing what they do before that is fantastic."
