My wife had been ill with a long term neurological condition for over 14 years when I was referred to the counselling service. Last Christmas was the worst time of my life as she was in hospital for 14 days and I spent many hours on my own with my wife. There were times when I didn't think I could go on as the whole situation was becoming impossible to deal with, almost no help from her family and paid help with 2 personal assistants.
I was referred to Delton who helped me through the last year of my wife's life, she died in May this year. He was understanding, compassionate and non-judgemental and I felt able to tell him things that I could not tell anyone else. Thank you Delton.
