~~
A patient asks the hospice nurse…
“Have you been witness to any healing
of patients with cancer”
The nurse turns to the man and says…
“In hospice, working with patients
In the natural process of dying…
I have frequently witnessed something
Even more powerful than the curing of disease.
~~
In the final weeks of a patients life…
I saw the healing of sadness…
the healing of regrets from unmet dreams…
the healing of families too long apart…
The healing that comes from words…
That took a lifetime to say…and
The healing that only letting go brings,”
