Hospice Care is a powerful, profound, and beautiful service to those who are passing from this life and their families who stand by and watch with sadness and sometimes confusion. I am a huge advocate for hospice care. I am grateful for it. My family has benefited directly from hospice care for my Grandma and my lifelong best friend had hospice care until she breathed her last as well. Hospice care workers are not nurses, not doctors, they are caretakers. They provide the comfort of companionship both to the bedridden and to their families. They speak gently and softly. They hold the hands of the sick. Hospice care allows the dying to maintain dignity and value, it allows for family and friends to be with their loved one in comfortable surroundings, it gets the magnitude of life. I'm so, so grateful for those dedicated to people in this particular way.
