People don't ask me how my day is because they are afraid I am going to tell them. I want to tell them... I want to let them know that the work we do in end-of-life care is so much more than death and dying. We see life and love, faith, culture, and traditions that are too beautiful to be able to express in words.

And it is hard too, because we see last breaths and last goodbyes and all the emotions that linger in between. I cry a lot, which I am sure does not surprise you. I feel other people's pain so deeply it becomes my own.

I have learned to practice self-care rituals to allow me to process my own responses to what I experience, and I sit with it for quite some time to feel what I am feeling, and to honor it. And I have learned to tuck it all away in a safe spot, a place I can come back to again if ever I need to.

If you know someone who does this work, ask them how their day is. Their stories might make you cry… but perhaps they will leave you feeling the way we do, which is having a deeper appreciation for life, for the people in our life, and for making moments and memories that will be left in the hearts of others. We understand the fragility of life in a way many people might not, which reminds us to live it a little more fiercely… and we want to remind you to do the same.
