We have Autumn Warren Connolly the full hour talking about hospice care, so let's get started!

Being In Hospice Care

Hospice care can be very interesting! Hospice care is so rewarding. We often forget about our oldest and most vulnerable in this country. Hospice care offers emotional support that these people would otherwise never get. It is a give and take. Being there for someone when they decide to pass is a beautiful thing. Hospice care is not always death though. Hospice care is a type of health care that focuses on the palliation of a terminally ill patient's pain and symptoms and attending to their emotional and spiritual needs at the end of life. Bernadette and Autumn swap stories about how listening is important, but how old men seem to never forget about sex too!Hospice is not just for people with cancer! Hospice care is for a wide range of people who have decided to no longer pursue a cure for their illness, and instead seek comfort, symptom management and quality of life. These patients have life-limiting illnesses such as end-stage heart, lung or renal disease; dementia; ALS; stroke, and neurological disorders, among others. Only 35 percent of our patients have a cancer diagnosis.There are so many people suffering behind closed doors that never get human interaction. When you do something Nobel and selfless, you get it back tenfold.

Halloween Treats

Feed your kiddos healthy, whole foods around halloween! Offer some real food and eat it too! Involve your children in the kitchen with you and make them a part of the festivities. You can make treats fun without consuming a ton of processed sugar.
