Enrolled in Hospice today.

Hoping for help with symptom management (pain control and shortness of breath).  And support for my family.  We'll see how it goes.

    hospice is a wonderful service

    Hospice is wonderful. When my dad died earlier this year, we waited too long to ask for the help they provide.

    I will pray for you and your family.
