Life in the House

Fisher House Families

“It was a privilege to be welcomed to the VA Puget Sound Fisher House. The building is beautiful as well as being comfortable and relaxing. The kitchen, with all its storage, cooking equipment and attractive dining areas adjacent to its heart, is a wonderful place to prepare a meal or enjoy a cup of coffee and to make friends with fellow residents. After the stress of being with and worrying about our hospitalized loved ones, it is so comforting to “come home” to a lovely home and share its beauty and friendship and give us a change to relax, enjoy, as well as comfort each other. Thank you, sincerely, for giving me the opportunity to participate in and be part of this community at a time of need”.
—Patricia J., Washington

"During the time of illness of loved ones, it can be very difficult for the caregiver. Fisher House provides such a tanquil environment in order for families to rest, meditate and care for ourselves. On behalf of all the famililies, I would like to say thank you to the staff for being so supportive. May God bless you".

-Beverly J., California

"My husband had treatment here two years ago (before Fisher House). For four months I had to drive 10 miles each way to a hotel, morning and night. I was scared being in an unfamiliar city with no support close by. My husband was also anxious about me leaving each night alone. But this year his annual physical was much more relaxed and we both felt safe and supported by the staff at Fisher House and other guests who knew the "silent fears" we all have about our loved ones' condition. Thank you for the quality of care and the beautiful home you provided".

-Barbara M, Oregon

“My stay at Fisher House has been so healing. My every need, physical and emotional has been more than met. it is such a special place! more than just a bed & kitchen - it is a home. The staff and the other guests have been wonderful. This has been an extraordinary experience. As I was cleaning my room before leaving, I realized I was lovingly passing my room at Fisher House on to bless the next guest".

Cheryl S, Washington

"The Fisher House staff were exceptionally friendly. My room wasn't merely a room, it was a suite! I feel like I am staying in a 5-star hotel. I had forgotten my toothpaste, and in my room was one waiting for me. I can't believe how nice this place is. I was leaving to go have dinner with my father in the cancer ward, and one of the ladies made me a bowl of food to take with me. During this difficult time, the Fisher House was like an angel. I am so happy to have been able to stay so close to my father and to feel so cared about in the Fisher House".

- Kimberly N, Oregon

"What a blessed and wonderful place this has been for so many people to stay in their time of need...words can't express how I feel and how very grateful and lucky I have been to stay here. I have met so many wonderful people and staff. God bless you all and the Fishers for making this all possible".

-Pearline C, Washington

"You are all so great. I could not have been here for my husband and done what I needed to do without your help and kind, caring hearts".

-Mary F, Montana
