Notes from Previous Guests


Jackie

What we liked most about Jill's House was the friendly, welcoming atmosphere and the cleanliness of the facility. Another patient told me that he felt his experience here had helped to cure him as much as his treatment at MPRI.

Cheri

We really liked how quiet and peaceful the House and the surroundings are. And we loved watching the deer out the windows. Being at Jill's House took a lot of stress off of our difficult situation by having caring people around and a comforting place to stay.

Karl

Jill's House was there for me when I was at my lowest point. Everyone was just wonderful. The staff was very professional yet very caring about my needs and others.

Tom

I considered the proton facility in Jacksonville as well as MPRI. But Jill's House made this place superior in every way!

Natalie

I was extremely impressed by the strides the staff and volunteers took to make sure that Jill's House was spotless. The staff was excellent; always supportive and helpful when needed.

J.B. and F.B.

Our stay at Jill's House is now one of our most treasured memories. The staff, volunteers, residents, and all the techs at MPRI have shown us they truly care about people coping with cancer.

Ken

Love this place!! Thanks, Jill's House, for making life a little easier during my time of crisis.

Jim

I had planned on getting my proton therapy at another treatment center closer to where we live; but I chose to come to MPRI in Bloomington because of Jill's House!

Peter

Jill's House has been like one big family and a place you can call "home". I really have no idea why anyone would wish to stay elsewhere.

C.A.S.

My family met a lot of wonderful people and made many new friends. Jill's House is a great atmosphere to be in, with a home away from home feeling.

A.R. from Chicago

All of the staff are kind, loving and professional. I have had a wonderful time here at Jill's House, and I'll miss everyone.

Bonny

I would not have gotten my proton treatment if it wasn't for Jill's House. Thank you!

Carole

We especially enjoyed the treasure-trove of the wonderful playroom when our grandchildren came to visit us at Jill's House.

Tonya

The staff makes you feel so comfortable right away that you automatically get that "home away from home" feeling. I felt completely safe here with my 7 year old daughter.

D. Q.

What a well-designed program and facility. Keep up the good work!

Stephen

The home-like comfort I found, and the fond memories of all the events, will last a lifetime. There are definitely angels at work in the healing process at Jill's House.

Connie

I most liked the hopitality and the friendliness of all the people at Jill's House. Although I missed home, this has been like a "family" where all the guests are sharing a common bond. What a wonderful tribute to Jill Behrman and to the Bloomington community.

R.C.

The proximity to MPRI is awesome. Even in the worst of winter cold and snow, the guests at Jill's House never had to miss a treatment appointment due to weather or road conditions.

Rich

I came to Bloomington with prostate cancer and emotional depression. MPRI took care of the cancer; being with the friendly people at Jill's House helped bring me out of my depression. Keep up the good work.

A. M.

Thank you, Jill's House, for providing a safe haven where patients could support, encourage and fellowship with one another while our bodies were being repaired. The work that you do is very much needed, particularly at a time when patients feel as though everything is falling down on their heads all at once.

Kelley

Our Jill's House experience will be talked about in our family for years to come because of the awesome job of the volunteers and employees to create a place of "home" away from home.

H.P.

As I sat in the lobby at Jill's House, I read the welcoming message about Care, Comfort and Community... I have received all three in abundance from all of you at Jill's House and at MPRI.

Jerry

What I liked most about my Jill's House experience is how quickly this becomes HOME while we are here for our "radiation vacation".

Jim

What a blessing Jill's House is to so many of us in need of a helping hand on a lonely journey of fighting cancer. Jill's House is as important to the healing process as the cyclotron pushing all those protons into your body.

Sal

I enjoyed the camaraderie, the social interaction, and the hospitality at Jill's House. What a wonderful place to spend what would otherwise have been a 'dark and dreary' time in my life.

Jim

"It was the best of times and the worst of times." If anyone that needs treatment at MPRI needs a place to stay, they could not find a better place than Jill's House. Although I wish I could have avoided prostate cancer, I am happy with my choice of treatment at MPRI and my stay at Jill's House.

L. M.

Jill's House took what could have been a lonely, perhaps scary, extended stay away from home and turned it into a positive, wonderful experience that I will always remember as a highlight of my life. The residents (who came from all across the country), the staff and volunteers were all so warm and friendly, that at the end of my nine weeks, I found it hard to leave.

Mike

This is a wonderful place to stay. Jill's House is a Home, not just bricks & mortar. The staff is top notch and could not have made my stay anymore comfortable and peaceful.

Ronald

When I think of a home-away-from-home, Jill's House is at the top of my list. The Behrman Family's dream to create a living testament to their beloved daughter Jill has become a reality that will benefit others for years to come.

Sara

A book should be written about Jill's House --- the entire story is not only unique, but uplifting as it depicts the heart of Bloomington and its people.

Tom

Jill's House staff and facilities and philosophy were wonderful. But the real power of Jill's House was the opportunity it offered for a live-in support group.

Treva

I loved the friendly staff, volunteers, and the wonderful people from all over that we lived and shared with for 2 months. Everyone had the same concerns, but continued to laugh and enjoy each other.

Lee

Talking with people from around the country is a great educational experience. I gained so many perspectives that I couldn't get if I was at a facility near my house. I enjoyed my stay here tremendously.

Guy

Staying here was an extremely positive experience. I will not forget this and will strongly recommend Jill's House. The 'people' made going through this treatment very special.

Therese

We felt safe and comfortable, which was the most important thing to us since we are from out-of-state. The House quickly became Home with all the wonderful people we've met.

Ed

The way that Jill's House is arranged - private rooms, shared kitchens and common dining area - provided me with just the right balance of private time and social interaction.

Randy

What we liked most about our Jill's House experience was the beautiful and comfortable warmth of the House and the Staff.

Loyd

It was almost worth getting prostate cancer to meet all the wonderful people at Jill's House!

Emmett and JoAnn

The atmosphere at Jill's House is very conducive to the healing process. The staff and volunteers are the best. We certainly felt that we were at home away from home.

George and Meda

Jill's House is a wonderful place to live. It definitely was our "home away from home"! We'll always cherish the memories and friends we were blessed with while here.

Jillanne

The staff and volunteers have done a great job in creating a supportive and caring environment for patients and their families.

Kim

Jill's House was a wonderful experience for me. I could not imagine going through this cancer treatment process anywhere else. The volunteers and staff were great!
