Hospice

on
Hospice means comfort care.
Hospice means focus on having good days.
Hospice means treatment is cancelled.  Done.  Finis.
Hospice means the decline is here.
Hospice means a very supportive team coming into our home to make those good days happen.

I am exhausted.
I am numb.
I am relieved to have the help.
Mostly, I am exhausted.

I'm not going to say more than that.  Our story is not misery porn.

Alana, I have read your blog for years and check in periodically to catch up, find out how Wes and you are doing. Witnessing your managing this devastating situation with such grace and class has been a privilege. Thank you to you and Wes for publicly walking this path. I've learned a lot. You both have blessed me.

I will be praying for you, Wes and the kids as you weave this final thread into the tapestry of your life. Soon you will pick up a new thread to attach and continue weaving. The pattern will change. It will remain beautiful.

Love in Christ, Trudy
