My name is moe and this is my very first blog post ever. My hope for this journey is to assist people who have brought their family members home to die. Hospice care is increasing in the United States as baby boomers age. Many people feel the need to take their loved ones home to die. This can be very intimidating to families. Often patients begin their journey on hospice before they are very close to death. They may be still functioning, receiving chemo, enjoying some activities but they are beginning to see signs that the end of life is nearing. Through each of my blogs, I will attempt to explore with you what patients are experiencing, what the family is experiencing, ways to care for patients, interesting stories I have learned through the years and see how this evolves. I have a lot to learn about posting and technology but please if you have an interest in what I have listed follow me and let me guide you on your journey.
