September 29th was a very special day in Casa Familia foundation, because we commemorated our first year since we started the operations of Casa de Luz --the first hospice of South America-- right after the arrival of our first patient and her family.
This special date also invited us to reflect on this first year, in which we have already accompanied twenty-one families, 12 oncologic and 9 non-oncologic.
This first experience deeply marked our team and work, and left us tremendous tools that are still with us today.
We treasure with gratitude and respect every moment we shared with this girl and her family.
