hospice

During the summer of 2017, my grandmother suddenly suffered a stroke. I became one of the over 700,000 family members that have to cope with the uncertain and challenging time after this kind of trauma occurs. I soon realized that if I was going to emotionally survive this, I'd have to find a way to funnel my feelings into something I could communicate outward.

Visiting the hospice every day, telling my grandmother stories intended to comfort and encourage her, being trapped in a seemingly endless loop, never knowing whether a triumphant recovery or the final goodbye awaited us... those are the feelings that I have used to make this experience.

If you give this a try, I thank you. If it hits too close to home, I understand and wish you well.
