I loved this.

Hospices are predicated to having to do something. We're busy people. We like our processes, systems and forms. Sometimes we need to remember to just be. I think more people would love us to just be... And not be busy.

Thanks for the reminder.

In my business, Medicare Insurance Agent, I need data to effectively help someone so I ask questions. As one client said “If you aren’t going to make recommendations what do I need you for?” Your technique is more delicate than mine and it should be. But when I get a response I must listen, grasp the key issues, and respond with a solution. Your position is harder than mine as often there is no solution other than time running its course and it is different for each person. Often I just let people tell me about their health care and I may have a solution but it important I let them finish. Glad you were good at this.
