A Sister Flies Home
When a hospice nurse dies it reminds us that we indeed are still human despite the work we do everyday at death’s door, one day that door will open for us as well. Most of us push that notion aside … Continue reading
Saying Goodbye
This has never happened to me; I had a patient on hospice since 12/2018-until yesterday. That is a really long time in my world. I spent the first two and half years as her case manager and the last 6 … Continue reading
Dog Signs #2

Kindness lurks
This week was beyond difficult. My son developed pneumonia from aspiration due to his seizures. This is a reoccurring side effect of his epilepsy, two years ago he had double pneumonia. Taking anyone to the hospital right now is incredibly … Continue reading
Windows
The eyes are the windows of the SOUL. This pandemic has forced all of us to look deeply into each other eyes when communicating, facial expressions are hidden behind our masks, lip reading is not an option and so our … Continue reading
