Hospice helped my pop and dad have a peaceful and good death. I am forever grateful.
I'll be participating in this year's Go the Distance & Women Swimmin' for Hospicare to raise much-needed funds for Hospicare. While some of us will be swimming and some will be doing other activities to Go the Distance, we realize that our fundraising efforts have a huge impact on the resources available for Hospicare to provide compassionate end-of-life care. I'm proud to be involved in this special community event and grateful to be able to participate. Hospicare needs us more than ever, and we can make a difference!
We're SWIMMING & GOING THE DISTANCE to raise funds that help Hospicare to:
- Provide vital medications to ease pain and manage symptoms
- Provide specialized medical equipment so patients can stay in their own homes
- Train more volunteers to deliver complementary therapies to enhance comfort and peace
- Offer grief counseling sessions
- Continue to provide intensive round-the-clock care at the Hospicare residence for patients who need more care than they can receive in their own homes.
If you can, please join me in supporting their work by making a donation on my fundraising page - you’ll find a link below. I hope you'll consider making a gift.
Wishing you good health and happiness,
Last summer I went to Greece with Jason, my husband. I love swimming, but do not like chlorine so I never was attracted to distance swimming. The first day we were in Greece on the coast of Athens, Jason found goggles on the seafloor.They fit me and figured they were a gift from Poseidon. Because I could see we swam far, everyday, a mile plus and I LOVED IT. When my dad died in 2020, I knew about this event and knew this would be a great way to give back and help support Hospice. Now that I feel good about swimming distance in the lake, the time is now.
