Dnes je Kloboukový den (#HatsOn4CPC) 🎩 Celý svět si dnes – druhý pátek v říjnu – připomíná význam dětské paliativní péče. V týmu Hospice Sv. Jiří se k této myšlence s úctou připojujeme. Dejme společně pečujícím rodinám vědět, že v tom nejsou sami. ❤

Kdo dnes ještě nosí klobouk? My. A máme k tomu dobrý důvod. Dnes je Kloboukový den. Někdo pomáhá rodinám, jiný vzdělává odborníky. Každý máme svou roli, ale společný cíl: dostupnější dětskou paliativní péči. Klobouky zase odložíme, ale v podpoře pokračujeme dál. 💙 Více o Kloboukovém dni na @ICPCN #HatsOn4CPC

Araba was a teenager in Ghana with plans for her future, including a dream of becoming a model. 💛 Dr Hamza Yusuf cared for her during treatment for osteosarcoma and remembers clearly how cancer affected her confidence.
