I could write a whole novel about my dad here, but this is a review for Harmony Hospice. I’ll keep it short and sweet. After my dad had his second chemotherapy, his condition of living has gotten worse, especially at the age of 79. When his doctor had mentioned he has 1 – 2 months to live, millions of things just ran through my mind, simultaneously. One question being, «If the hospital can’t keep him in, who’s gonna take care of him? My mom is also too elderly to take care of him. She won’t know much what to do!» For sure, I thought he would die in the most miserable way, at that point. After my mom had spoken to his doctor about a hospice at home, as an option, my face lit up with hope. But, I still had the worrying thought of «Are they good? How involved can they be? My mom can’t speak any English; how can they communicate?» I flew down to Vegas to see my parents and introduce myself to the hospice nurses. My first impression of all of them were very warm, friendly, and really made sure my dad is super comfortable. Deb. I love Deb. Since there was a language barrier between my mom and, well, with every English-speaking people around her… Deb insisted to continually text or call me, whenever she and I had questions about dad. Even though I live all the way in San Francisco, she and I kept posted, so I can translate to my mother. She was very much involved in this process. Candy is great, as well. They were all so very caring to my dad. But for Deb, I can’t express enough how much she had helped us. So very informative. Without any hesitation, she(among other great nurses) would arrive my dad’s house in the middle of nights to check if he’s OK. I had Deb described to me the process of death. Obviously, depending on each person, the experience varies. But it gave me some sort of an idea and almost an ease of mind what to expect, so I won’t panic. My dear dad had passed on November 24th @ 1:15pm. Deb mentioned to my brother that the way he had passed was, seemingly, painless. And that he went almost peacefully in his sleep. And I needed to hear that. And IF it wasn’t entirely true, at least I was left knowing from a professional that he did. Thank you, Harmony Hospice…
