Anita,
You are correct about the special program for kids. Unfortunately as you know when someone finally decides that it is hospice time it is usually too late or to close to the end in some cases. This program was started in hopes to get in sooner and spend more time getting to know the family bond with the patients and help where need. The assistance is vast and could include helping with siblings to whatever the family needs are. It is an amazing program and I glad to be at the start of it. I believe it is wide spread even at international level unfortunately not everyone is doing it due to lack of funding ect.

The camp program sounds like a grate idea and I think some of the concepts are similar and used in pedi care. It is amazing how many different avenues there are available to help fellow souls in need.

It is amazing how things are getting more acceptable. Basically volunteers are encourage to use any modality they feel can help. This ranges from various types of energy work to massage and so on. It is a grate benefit for all. As in any other situation approval sometimes is required and caution for treading on someone’s belief system. But there are ways to approach it to keep it neutral and the family usually wants what is best so no harm no foul. I look forward to sharing Qigong when I am ready.
