When my husband Ivan was diagnosed with cancer, we faced it together as a family.

When his diagnosis became terminal, we found a new family through the incredible team at Karuna.

They surrounded us with love and support during the hardest time in our lives. We never felt alone through Ivan’s palliative journey. 

My name is Melissa. I've been part of the Karuna family for over four years now. And it is a privilege to share my family's story with you.

I can’t thank enough Tsultrum, Dr Wendy and all the other support workers who came to our home during Garth’s journey with the GBM. It was a very challenging time for him being such a talented man with his hands and with his short term memory taken away and unable to manage anything he loved doing was a cruel blow.

A thank you to all in Karuna . You looked after my husband, and now you are all looking after me. You also used to come to my work at Church of Christ (age care)Bribie island. To help us with lost of life for our residents. The lady monk that comes to visit is absolutely wonderful. She helps me understand things in a different way. . She makes me feel so at ease when I talk to her. Thank you for everything you do for me.
