		<description>Hi Marcie,
thanks for popping in and commenting here.
I worked in a hospital environment myself for a while and found it extraordinarily moving how stoic patients can be in the face of adversity, but also how confused families can become when one of their number is ill.

It must take a great inner strength to work with hospice patients, because, unlike the hospital environment which is balanced with recovery as well as terminal illness, a hospice has a whole different environment.  
I greatly admire anyone who works day by day in a hospice and makes a difference to the patient's lives, and I am so glad that writing about it, you are not only providing your own therapy, but bringing home to your readers the mix of emotions involved.

Thanks so much for stopping by :)</description>

		<description>Thank you for sharing my post with your readers, I sincerely hope that it in some way helped you and your readers, just as writing it helped me.  Writing pieces such as The Death Professional is my therapy for dealing with the emotions that invariably come up working with hospice patients.
Best,
