Families Share Their End-of-Life Doula Experiences

 “My husband and I felt extremely supported by Beverley as we faced the reality of his impending death. Her compassion and expertise guided our family through the complexities of this journey with such grace.

We cannot imagine how we would have managed without her gentle presence and invaluable guidance. Beverley alleviated burdens, advocated for us, and took care of the practical arrangements we had discussed in advance. This allowed us to focus on what mattered most in those final hours together.

I truly believe every family should have the support of an End-of-Life Doula to help them prepare for the death of a loved one. It makes a world of difference for the person who is dying and for those who love them.” (Renee F)

“Beverley is a warm, understanding, and compassionate individual who consistently finds the right words and practical next steps in emotionally and mentally challenging situations. I experienced Beverley's remarkable abilities after my brother passed away. The level of support she provided was exceptional. Beverley was always just a phone call away, day or night, helping me navigate my grief and the complex emotions that arose, offering the encouragement I needed. I felt safe and supported with Beverley, appreciating that silence was as welcome as words. For her unwavering support, I will be forever grateful.

Being a Death Doula is truly Beverley's calling! I cannot imagine anyone better suited to support those facing the departure of a loved one.

Beverley engages wholeheartedly, listening with an open ear and heart, and brings a clarity to confusion that is often needed during such a difficult time. 

With her skilled facilitation and coaching, she ensures that last wishes are honoured and that critical matters, such as legal documents and other arrangements, are addressed.

For me, Beverley was a lifesaver when I needed one the most. Thank you, Beverley!" (Shulamit M)

"Beverley was a true blessing during my Dad's illness and departure from this world. Her presence provided immense comfort to him and to all of our family at a time when we didn't even realize we needed someone beyond our close-knit family to bolster our strength.

Her gentle spirit, kind heart, delightful sense of humour, love of music, and intuitive understanding of how to bring ease during that devastating time were invaluable to my Dad, our family, and me.

As I reflect on my Dad's battle with cancer and his end-of-life journey, I recognize the profound impact Beverley had on us all. She made the unbearable bearable in both subtle and overt ways, guiding us through the unknowns we faced. Her wisdom and generosity infused a beautiful energy into that sorrowful period. She seemed to appear just when we needed her most, even as we were too sleep-deprived or engulfed in our sadness to realize we required assistance.

Beverley holds a special place in my heart for all she did during the single most challenging time in my life. She truly is an angel among us." (Moira QL)

Thank you, Beverley!"
