Testimony
 

“Shelley provided comfort and guidance in my darkest times as I faced switching off my Mum’s life support.  She made herself available no matter what the time of day or night, whether it was for a shoulder to cry on or just to talk.  Shelley provided beneficial translation of medical terms so that I could follow what doctors were trying to achieve.  She never pushed an issue , but rather suggested things to think about.  She sat with me to my mum's last breath providing comfort and dealt with the hospital while I concentrated on saying goodbye."
