Belly Balm

"Belly Balm' is a book of recipes and stories that has been published in the North West region of NSW. The objective of the book is in keeping with the 2009 National Palliative Care Awareness theme "If Only I Knew" and seeks to improve awareness of Palliative Care and the issues that surround it.

Belly balm is a wonderful collection of delicous recipes and personal reflections which have been contributed by Palliative Care carers and patients. These have been interspersed with contributions from a wide range of health care workers. This reflects the diverse group of Health Care workers who provide Palliative Care and how these teams come together to provide different levels of support needed to care for this group of patients and their carer's.
