Jackie, I also had Hospice for my Step Father. They were wonderful, kinda funny now that I look back on this, I was not wrapping my mind around that he was Passing in a few hours, and they kept asking me to provide the mortuary name, I kept telling them I would, They were so patient with me. It is a good thing we are not all built alike, that to me would be a very depressing job.

Yes it is a good reminder. I am still a "gun nut" though.
All bad is usually good for something. I now try not tho drop a loaded antique guns and have, thanks to this accident my love Debbie ( I call her Debbinka, little Debbie in Czech) who is a nurse and she is the one who called the 911 and took care of me after they send me home and was removing and stuffing into my chest 25 ft of gauze dressing every day. In order to take care of me she took me to her house after they released me from intensive care,.... and I have never left. :))) This the best thing which happened to me since I came to USA 30 or so years ago. Great way to get a girl. But I think,.... there must be easier way.
Take care.

Cheryl & 1doggie2, When I went to nursing school 26 years ago, I wanted to work in mother/baby, but instead I drifted into critical care, & then to Hospice. I was drawn to the holistic nature of the practice, to the commitment of the practitioners. It is truly a 'calling'. To me, there are many parallels between coming into the world, & leaving it. It helps to have someone standing by. God bless you, & my condolences. jackie harris

Hans, I'm glad that you not only survived, but learned more about life and love along the way. And glad you're still with us! Everything is connected and if that's what you had to go through to find your true love, I'm sure it's worth it in the end!

We all have a terminal diesease because no one gets out of this life alive and it's not how long we live, but what we do with the time given that matters and to me that means leaving nothing good undone, and nothing bad unforgiven.
