Saka Dawa is one of the four great holy days of the Tibetan calendar commemorating Shakyamuni Buddha’s enlightenment and parinirvana. At Karuna we celebrated with a morning meditation, sutra reading and prayers for the whole world. We even had a Buddha birthday cake!

We love what we do! It's such a privilege to be allowed to care so intimately for someone at the most personal time of their life. [Photo taken pre social distancing]. #welovewhatwedo #palliativecareweek2020 #makingadifferencetogether

Charles’ mum, Loody Stewart, says Karuna empower

Charles’ mum, Loody Stewart, says Karuna empowered her son to not just survive the last six months of his life but to truly live, with his mates, his faithful dog and family by his side. Friends were able to flow in and out of the house, some staying for hours, others for days. “Having Charles at home meant we could walk this journey with family and friends - Sunday roasts, long lunches, his dog at his bedside, praying, playing guitar and sharing funny stories. It was a beautiful journey and we could only have had that with Karuna.,” says Loody.
Many people wish to die at home, but few have the opportunity to do so. Charles was able to enjoy the comforts of home while receiving specialist Palliative care with Karuna. #palliativecareweek2020 #itsmorethanyouthink #trulylive #empower

This week is National Palliative Care Week and the theme is “It's more than you think”. Palliative Care can help people living with a life-limiting illness to live as well as possible, for as long as possible - supporting their physical, emotional, spiritual and social needs. Thank you to all who work and volunteer in palliative care - you make a difference.
