Thank you Gallen, for clarifying the battle analogy and your insightful wisdom. I admit it is not a good analogy to subscribe to but unfortunately in some cases that is exactly what is going on, the bodies systems are failing and life is slipping away. Hospice is there to help make the transition as painless and comfortable as possible. As you alluded to, hospice is not there necessarily to prolong life although it is not out of the realm to have patients go into remission or even get better and be removed from the program. What a joy that is for all involved when that happens. With that in mind I try to take a compassionate approach to the situation I try not to judge what I see and the battle analogy is not in the forefront of my mind. There is too much unknown to try and determine what should and shouldn’t be. A person may just be hanging on so to speak to complete unfinished business or who knows what. Any help that assist them on this level is a blessing in and of its self. I am there to support and offer support in anyway that fits the situation or that I am guided to. My hope is to be more consciously tuned into the guidance and the signs and be of service and take action as appropriately needed.
I’m glad to be apart of the sharing and offer something that could help you Anita. Thank you both for I find that as I clarify the thought process and share I also learn for myself as well.
Love & light to you both as well.
