doctors letters

Several doctors shared their gratitude and the beneficial effects of our wish fulfilments by sending us letters.

“This is just to voice my appreciation of the work done by your organisation. The children I treat have a diagnosis of cancer and the treatment includes intensive chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery. Often these children come from financially deprived families or have stressful social circumstances, and for such families the diagnosis cancer is very much the last straw. The diagnosis not only affects the child but also the siblings, parents and sometimes the grandparents as well. In such a situation for us to be able to point them towards the direction of an organisation which can arrange time away for the whole family, is very uplifting. The fact that there are people who care and realise what these families are going through, means a lot at a time like this. The trip itself often gives them the breathing space that they need to come to terms with their circumstances. It also gives them something positive to look forward to while the child is going through sometimes horrendous side effects, both physical and psychological. With the best wishes for the future of this organisation."
Dr Mary Taj, Royal Marsden Hospital, United Kingdom

"As a child neurologist, responsible for the care of children with severe
neuromuscular diseases, I personally wish to thank your organisation for the efforts made to give some of my patients the vacation of their lifetime.
These families were very thankful for the professional organisation of their
stay. They enjoyed a fantastic week. These families cherish unforgettable memories. We know that we cannot cure our patients. But we also know that we can do a lot to improve the quality of life of these children and their parents. Initiatives from companies such as yours play an important role in this. I sincerely hope that a lot more children can make their wish come true. A sincere thank you."
Dr Nathalie Goemans, Universitair Ziekenhuis Gasthuisberg, Belgium
