This episode is a personal account of a family member's cancer story and why I wish I could have been more apart of the journey.  Within two weeks my family member went from feeling sick to reaching his end of life and needing hospice.  If you have experienced this yourself or have seen a family member, friend, child experience it you know how it feels.  All you can do is spend the most time you can with them and try to help them feel comfortable during their time they have left on this earth.  We see you and we know how hard it is.

We understand what you or your family member are going through during treatment and at their end of life.  We are here for you and can help provide resources to make you or your family members journey better and be better prepared.  You can ask us anything!
