Description
Being a personal caregiver for a terminally ill patient on hospice can be one of the most difficult roles and one of the most rewarding ones, too. Jahnna Beecham, co-author of Living with Dying, tells us about her experiences as a personal caregiver for her mom and dad. Jahnna shares her raw and honest emotions of what she was experiencing before, during, and after her parents received hospice. She also talks about what she learned from the experience of having both of her parents on hospice, and what hospice professionals can do to improve their caregiving skills. You can read more about Jahnna and her co-author, Katie Ortlip at their website LivingWithDying.com.

Don't forget that we share a weekly blog with you every Sunday. You can read it here.
