Hospice

I visited my hospice patient again today (Monday). I brought them some buttercups from my yard. They were appreciated. The patient was in a talkative mood again. We talked about our children, food, and the beautiful weather we had yesterday on Sunday. The patient took a couple of catnaps. We laughed, we were quite, and sometimes we just smiled at each other. As I was leaving an old friend stopped by to see how they were doing.

It takes so little to give someone joy and happiness. Being able to express their feelings helps them to relieve some of their stress.

The time I spend with my patient is uplifting and so encouraging.
