Shes just been told she's got less than a year to live. I took her and her husband out for dinner last night. I asked if she had a bucket list. She named a few things. One was she wanted to do more things with her husband, like meals out, experiences etc. I want to try and organise something at least monthly for them. They have both been unwell and on benefits all their lives. They have no money to spare.
Has anyone got any ideas or any contacts. Business owners, restaurant managers etc whom I could approach to see if they are able to donate something for this couple.
