How Can We Help?
All of us will experience a time when someone we love is faced with the end of their life. It can feel like the world, as we know it, is being turned upside down. Often, we may not know what to do, how to cope, what to expect or where to find help. Knowing where to begin is often a challenge. We may find ourselves asking these questions:
What appropriate health care decisions do I make for my loved one?
I feel so alone – how will I get the support I need to get through this?
Will my loved one be comfortable in every way?
What can I do to make sure my loved one does not die in pain?
Can my loved one be cared for at home?
