One of the reasons I decided to become an EOL doula is to support people who are walking the path alone—this article spells it out beautifully. Everyone should have thoughtful support—from friends, family, or other caregivers—so that they can have a good death.

I know I need support navigating the complexities of dying and I want to die on my own terms

Hi friends! My next Caregivers Study Group is starting on January 24. Here are some quotes from the Fall group:

"The caregiver role came quickly to me - such a big role, with little preparation. Having Amy as a support and resource gives me relief and encouragement. The Caregiver Group was engaging, supportive and super informative."

"Amy’s group helped me feel less alone. The humor sprinkled throughout our sessions helped remind me that this is a natural process that can feel really hard and that it’s ok to laugh!"
"Even though I took Amy's class before needing to care for my elderly parents, I felt it was well worth the investment, as I learned so much from Amy and the other participants and feel better prepared to support my own family when the time comes."

If you're not sure whether this is for you, let's set up a quick phone chat so I can learn more about the issues your family is facing!

Rings of Care offers end-of-life doula services - this page shows upcoming events offered. Website includes information about services, links to other resources, and forms to contact Amy.

Just a reminder that it’s better to traumatize your family in advance. Happy Holidays!

I recently helped a friend whose dad was transitioning from the hospital to at-home hospice care. The outpouring of love and support from their friends was beautiful, but also a little overwhelming.

I like these ideas and would add that it’s great to drop stuff off without the expectation to be invited in for a sit-down visit.

When we hear that someone has died, we think of ways to help and one of those things is to drop off food at the home of the grieving family.
