At the beginning, we felt lonely, powerless, with the sheer dread of the unknown. A hospice would actually be the biggest turning point in our journey. Suddenly we felt included in a community we’d never known existed and it didn’t seem as scary. It felt like a loving, safe space where people understood how complex and unknown our life had really become.
