Camp Erin was a great experience for my son the year after we lost his dad to cancer. I wish he could return for another weekend.
Camp Erin was amazing for my daughter after we lost her brother/our son in a terrible accident last summer. It gave her a place to express her grief and remember her brother, it also let her know she wasn’t alone. That others knew what she was going through. It often feels like we’re the only ones who have ever gone through something this terrible, but I know we’re not. I just wish they’d implement a family/parents portion as well. Thank you Moyer Foundation and MargaretAnn’s Place in Milwaukee for offering such a wonderful thing.
Thanks to Hospice of Anchorage, Alaska and Camp Erin for being there for my husband, Bo, granddaughter, Ciara and I. We lost our youngest daughter, Brittany (Ciara’s mom) 2 years ago this Dec. 21, 2009. Hospice has been a part of life for us. Ciara turned 6 last May 19th and was able to go to Camp Erin. It has been pretty emotional for me lately due to Britt’s anniversary date coming up and the Holidays. Out of our three daughter’s, she was the youngest and born on my birthday. I have to admit that Hospice of Anchorage has really been a GODSEND. We have a pretty large support system of family, friends and people who just care.
Thank you Camp Erin… Ciara had a blast at her first Camp…
Fondly, Terrie Mason
HI Vickie
My son Thomas lost his sister Jenna so it is so great to hear there were other kids like him. Would love to chat about your experience if you want. My son was the youngest there so not a real chatty cathy with info.
