"They [hospice] cannot add
days to your life but they can
absolutely add life to
your days."

- A 37-year-old hospice patient

"Words can't express how
much the hospice program
has helped our family
cope with Mom's illness and her death.  We appreciate
the program so much."

- A Family Member

"Too many people don't
know about the wonderful work hospice does, not for money but out of the
goodness of their hearts."

- A 77-year- old hospice patient

"Hospice was like a blessing
to me.  Without their help,
I would not have been
able to care for my
husband at home."

-  A surviving wife

"Calling hospice is 'not
giving up'...it is the
opposite.  For [our infant
daughter], it meant a high
quality of life and care
from loving, committed
and thoughtful professionals.
For that,  we are very grateful."

- A surviving mother

"When I get sick, upset
and need help, they are
always there for me.
I can call them at 3 a.m. and talk to someone."

- A 63-year-old hospice patient

"We were in great need
of the extra support
hospice gave us at a
very critical time."

- A surviving wife
