“When a loved one is facing their final chapter of life, one of the greatest expressions of grace and love is who they write that chapter with. In hospice, we describe this as a journey. A journey of facing the reality of death while honoring and celebrating life. A journey of tears and laughter, reflection and remembrance. A journey that can reawaken the heart to the eternal hope for which it was fashioned. Join Doris Anne on this journey as she shares with you from a deeply personal and sacred place of what it meant- and what it will always mean – to have been Berne’s best friend and wife.”
Michael Lacey
Chaplain
Berne had many angel visits during his last days. He remained alert and kept his sense of humor until he passed. I had hoped to keep him home with me, but as his systems shut down that was no longer possible. Our nurse advised an evaluation at the hospital where they gave him three days to live. Berne was blind now. God gave him visions of priests who filled him with love and took away his pain. He was in pallative care so I was allowed to visit. After thirteen days he was transferred to a Hospice/Vet Home. Covid limited my visits to porch visits where he was separated by glass. If he fell or had a low blood sugar I was allowed into his room. Then I could touch him and he would say, “This is wonderful.” I wanted people to know that God is always with you.
