Update on Dickie

Dickie, Rick's grandfather, passed-away peacefully Friday afternoon. Rick spent the weekend in Kent, CT with his mother and sister. We are both traveling to Kent this coming Friday - Monday for the funeral.

Dickie's passing gave me a personal experience which confirmed my belief that hospice care is an amazing institution. This has also given me an opportunity to hear friend's and acquaintance's experience with hospice, all of which have been positive. Truly is inspirational, especially as I slowly move closer to my nursing career.
