Special Dates for Sarah
The staff of The Denver Hospice recently arranged two very special “dates” for one of their patients – Sarah. Sarah is only 22 years old and comes from a large family of eight siblings. Unfortunately, Sarah has a life-limiting cancer diagnosis and two of her final wishes was to have Holiday Tea at The Brown Place and attend a sporting event. When the staff at The Denver Hospice became aware of this, they reached out to their network and arranged two very special outings for Sarah.
Tea at The Brown Palace
In late December, Sarah and five of her siblings were invited to a VIP tea at The Brown Palace in Denver. Sarah and her family enjoyed tea under the holiday decorations and a had a grand time.
A Colorado Avalanche Game
In January, Sarah was also treated to a special date courtesy of the Colorado Avalanche.
Her day-long adventure included flowers delivered by Avs alumni and a pre-game date with dinner, valet service to the game, gift bags, and a suite at the game for Sarah and her loved ones.
There was even a visit from Avs legend, Joe Sakic, who provided an autographed jersey and Bernie, the Avs mascot.
Both outings were well beyond Sarah’s expectations of a date, due to the work of the caregivers at The Denver Hospice. The Denver Hospice would like to thank the generous staff at The Brown Palace and the Colorado Avalanche for making these two very special outings possible for Sarah.
