Julie Kulikowski OAM has received an Order of Australia for her work in haematology, palliative care and bereavement counselling.  She has sat beside people facing the terror of oblivion.  She has been the light on the wharf, while their family was being tossed around in the stormy seas that follow a sudden terminal diagnosis and death.  It’s a time a time when only everything changes; and it was one of these families who nominated Julie for her award.
