week we are talking with Noelle whose 71-year-old mother started to receive hospice care on July 2 (her mother died 9/27) and Noelle learned firsthand what was required to provide care for her mom. There is a lot involved in caring for someone at the end of life, medications to be given, physical care to be offered. Noelle’s initial thought about this was that ‘they really don’t expect us to do this, do they?’ Well, yes Noelle, they do. Tune in to this enlightening interview with Noelle. and from all of us at Everyone Dies we offer Noelle and her family condolences on the death of their mother.
